Description

The Data Management Facility (DMF) is the hub of ARM instrument data flow and also provides resources for VAP development. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act provided money to ensure that the DMF could support the large number of new instruments and their data volumes, as well as plan for the expected continued growth in VAP development needs over the next few years. This poster presents the new hardware architecture of the DMF, the planned data flow, and proposed changes to data policies. The poster will generate feedback to help tune the policies. It will also serve to communicate the capabilities that are available to infrastructure data users.
