    • Is Globus supported at Tufts as a file transfer mechanism? Currently no though this is being examined. Globus is based upon GridFTP and allows for higher speed transfer (, via multiple data paths), , than typical tools such as scp, sftp, and rsync. This is of particular importance as files and datasets get larger. Globus also allows for disconnected transfer and restart of large file copies.
    • Is Aspera supported at Tufts as a file transfer mechanism? As far as we know Aspera is not deployed on Xsede yet though it is being examined.
