The Fasterdata Knowledge Base provides proven, operationally sound methods for troubleshooting and solving performance issues. For over 25 years, ESnet has operated an advanced research network with the goal of enabling the highest levels of performance for the Department of Energy (DOE) scientific community. During this time, our engineers have identified a common set of issues that hinder performance and we would like to share our experiences and findings in this knowledge base. Our solutions fall into five categories:
- Network Architecture, including the Science DMZ model
- Host Tuning
- Network Tuning
- Data Transfer Tools
- Network Performance Testing
as well as additional information and references contributed by the community.
