Presentation: Keynote: Distributed Data and Storage Management for the Large Hadron Collider

Time: Wednesday 09:00 - 09:50 / Location: Store Sal, Musikhuset

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the flagship project of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). Last year some 20 PB of data have been delivered to the high-energy physics community and have been analyzed by more than 8000 users worldwide. This presentation describes the particular requirements and boundary conditions for LHC data and storage management and the infrastructure in place at CERN and many partner sites. It will also cover the main lessons learned during several years of development and deployment of the current distributed data handling system.
