Janet – e-Infrastructure networking
•£26M With HEFCE
Breakdown
•£10M Contribution to Janet6 backbone
•£12M Network provision within “classic” Janet community, including key locations which may need additional fibre access
•£4M “Industry connection”

e-Infrastructure Strategic Sites
•Potential fibre / capacity requirements•Work with organisations to understand requirements•Build cases for provision
•If approved, integrate provision with deployment of Janet6

Gathering strategic requirements
•Immediate focus on sites mentioned..
•Generic approach– Senior research management– Senior infrastructure management
•Strategic view – 5+ years•Quantitative•Patterns of use
– Locations, data volumes -> net capacities
•Challenging !
![Page 6: E-Infrastructure Networking David Salmon. Topics e-Infrastructure funding – What has Janet been doing ? Emerging Issues – Some practicalities Broader.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b52bb550346d41a8b60bd/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Patterns of use
• Data movement – working patterns– How much – data volume ?
• Beware Bytes vs. bits !
– How quickly ?– How often ?– Where to ?– National & International
• Network engineers need bit-rates !• Working with research communities to
understand emerging/evolving requirements

Results
•Visits undertaken – first phase•Collating & chasing input !•Document cases for approval•Within next week or two
![Page 12: E-Infrastructure Networking David Salmon. Topics e-Infrastructure funding – What has Janet been doing ? Emerging Issues – Some practicalities Broader.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b52bb550346d41a8b60bd/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Expectations ?
• Janet provision–meet acute needs in shorter term– broader provision within Janet6–mechanisms• IP capacity to host organisation• some point to point services

e-Infrastructure projects funded
•HPC– 5 regional consortia– National facility – Hector / Archer– Dirac
•Particle physics•NERC•STFC
– RAL– Daresbury
•will engage to discuss requirements & evolution

Some implications

![Page 15: E-Infrastructure Networking David Salmon. Topics e-Infrastructure funding – What has Janet been doing ? Emerging Issues – Some practicalities Broader.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b52bb550346d41a8b60bd/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Throughput challenges
• Infrastructures can deliver very high capacities
• Realising high-throughput end-to-end will take some effort
• Can’t just take systems “out of the box” and expect to get full line-rate data-transfers
• This needs to be communicated & understood more widely
• Janet & NREN community needs to work more closely with research communities to understand and solve issues.

Achievable Throughput• What is realistic ?– Challenge: 1Gbit/s, 24hr ~= 10TBytes
• Holistic approach– End systems - Hardware & Software - Both
ends !– Local networks– Wide area networks
• Highlight successful examples– Technical case studies
• Janet role ?– Co-ordination/collaboration– Advice & troubleshooting support ?
![Page 17: E-Infrastructure Networking David Salmon. Topics e-Infrastructure funding – What has Janet been doing ? Emerging Issues – Some practicalities Broader.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b52bb550346d41a8b60bd/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Network structure implications ?
• Large research communities• International/global overlays or private
networks• Particle physics - LHC OPN (LHCONE)• Radio Astronomy – eVLBI, LOFAR, (SKA...)• Future – Bioinformatics ?? ELIXIR• Campus implications ?
point to point services (lightpaths)more complex multi-homing – routing/switching
issues

Industry ?
• Existing Janet policy– Supporting collaborative R&D– Business and Community Engagement
(BCE)
• Evolution - more needed ?• e-Infrastructure– “Open and accessible Janet”
![Page 19: E-Infrastructure Networking David Salmon. Topics e-Infrastructure funding – What has Janet been doing ? Emerging Issues – Some practicalities Broader.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062620/551b52bb550346d41a8b60bd/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Connecting Industry – meaning ?
• Network connections ?• Access to community systems &
resources connected to Janet ?• Access to Janet community
knowledge & expertise ?–Mix of all three...
• BIS & HPC Consortia views ?

Conclusion & seed discussion issues ?
• Throughput performance– Your views on what Janet should be
doing ?
• Services multiplying– Campus issues & implications– Advice or information required ?
• Other points ?– Janet supporting research
