In this talk, we'll explore the lifecycle of data at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Physics, starting at particle collisions ultimately leading to physics research. The bulk of the data from the physics programme at CERN is stored in an open source storage system developed at CERN, EOS - EOS Open Storage.

We'll delve into technical & architectural details on EOS and cover how it solves the problem of large scale storage for scientific data and analysis use cases. EOS supports FUSE, HTTP & GRPC as access protocols. EOS is used also outside of physics use cases, for eg. powering CERNBOX, a cloud storage for CERN users, at JRC, for analytics etc and may power your next large scale storage needs!
