The global research and education (R&E) community is celebrating a major milestone in high-performance networking and collaboration: the 20th anniversary of perfSONAR.
Since April 2005, this powerful, open-source toolkit has enabled researchers and network operators to measure and troubleshoot performance across diverse network environments.
For more than 25 years, GlobalNOC at Indiana University has grown alongside the R&E networking community, expanding from a handful of people supporting Internet2’s Abilene network to more than 140 world-class service desk technicians, engineers, and developers who support partner organizations from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to regional networks such as Rhode Island’s OSHEAN. The GlobalNOC community currently includes 30+ network partners in research, education, public service, and municipal operations, ranging from small and local to global in scope and impact.
