-------------------------------------------
[Another excellent report by Educause on the challenges and strategies of
developing a coherent national cyber-infrastructure strategy. I
particularly note the observation that "The use of conventional perimeter
firewalls, which might be appropriate for parts of the campus constituency,
must not burden high-speed flows between on-campus users and resources and
those off campus. " To address this problem CANARIE, working in partnership
with regional networks has extended the backbone optical network to a number
of individual labs on various campuses across Canada. In some cases we have
even installed backbone ROADM equipment right on campus to allow researchers
access to potentially hundreds of lambdas. To do this we had to extend dark
fiber connections across the campus, bypassing the campus network, from the
local regional and/or CANARIE POP. This is necessary not only for high end
users, but also health and government data users who are subject to HIPAA
requirements. This is only possible with facilities owned networks as
universities are not likely to make this investment where the underlying
backbone service provider changes every 5 years or so. It also goes without
saying that developing a comprehensive cyber-infrastructure strategy will be
essential for those institutions who are likely to pay substantially more
money in electricity because of upcoming cap and trade.
Cyber-infrastructure accounts between 30-50% of the electrical consumption
at a research intensive university.-BSA]
