Beehive<\/em> is a petascale network-accessible storage system capable of parallel I\/O for use in HPC numerical simulations and data acquisition processes related to research primarily in climate science.  The BeeGFS storage cluster was obtained through NSF Office of Advanced Cyberinfrastructure (OAC) CC* Storage Grant 1659169 ($199,998) titled Implementation of a Distributed, Shareable, and Parallel Storage Resource at San Diego State University to Facilitate High-Performance Computing for Climate Science<\/a>. Beehive<\/em> has a capacity of 2.4PB and consists of two metadata servers (SuperMicro SuperStorage Server 2028R-E1CR24H) and four object storage servers (QCT 4U 78 Bays High Density Storage Server 1S2PZZZ0007) and contains a total of 4 x 78 x 8TB HDDs.  The storage cluster supports MPI-IO, parallel NetCDF, and parallel HDF5 to improve run-time performance of I\/O bound computations.  Beehive<\/em> resides on the SDSU NSF-funded Science DMZ (“SDMZ”) network to facilitate high-speed (10\/40\/100 Gbps) data transfer using Globus.  A petascale and parallel storage system provides needed capacity to accommodate potentially petabyte-sized output files generated from coastal ocean modeling, numerical geologic CO2 sequestration, multiphase turbulent combustion, and real-time CO2 and CH4 data acquisition, and facilitates parallel I\/O to improve the run-time performance of I\/O bound processes, where the run-time is typically a function of grid resolution (mesh size) and the number of 4D temporal-spatial computed scalar, vector, and tensor fields to be saved to disk.  Beehive<\/em> uses the BeeGFS parallel file system, which is developed at the Fraunhofer Institute for industrial mathematics.  The BeeGFS Parallel File System cluster provides scalable, high-throughput, low-latency, parallel I\/O to network accessible HPC clusters at San Diego State University used for climate science related numerical simulations and enables scientific discovery through improved run-time performance of I\/O intensive workloads.  With BeeGFS, I\/O throughput scales linearly to a sustained throughput of 25 GB\/s.  BeeGFS client drivers are published under the GPL and the server application is covered by the Fraunhofer EULA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
