OneOklahoma Friction Free Network (OFFN) (PPT)

Abstract

This session presents a stage model that describes the ongoing deployment of a Science DMZ known as the OneOklahoma Friction Free Network (OFFN) in order to guide multi-campus collaborations on their journey to a robust cyberinfrastructure model. This session defines implementation stages and describes the deliverables, benefits, challenges, best practices, and metrics for each stage. The results of the initial implementations are expected to show that metrics including speed, stack size, context switching, signal deliveries, and socket message traffic is improved and latency and errors including page faults are reduced. It is hoped that this model will serve as a sustainable model for EPSCoR states hoping to maximize research efficiency and minimize risk in their engagement of statewide research interests.
