RFT for Next Generation Storage (Research Data Store)
Tender ID: 348510
Tender Details
Tender Description
Supply and operationalisation of a data storage and movement solution for the University of Sydney Research Data Store (RDS).
The University of Sydney seeks tenders for a storage based solution to meet or exceed the requirements and challenges of multiple research and ICT Use Cases, which is also capable of rapidly evolving over time.
This RFT has been structured to allow tenderers an opportunity to review the current and future challenges of research data management. It is expected the tenderers experience, technologies and resources will provide a holistic and strategic solution to meet the performance and functionality requirements outlined in this RFT.
The tenderer will deliver a robust and fit for purpose active data storage fabric to underpin university research investment in the areas outlined in this RFT.
There is a preference for a single vendor. However, the expectation is that a single appliance or technology will not meet the broad requirements of this project. As such, multiple vendors will be considered.
The university has 7 Core Research Facilities with over $20M worth of investment in new research capability every year. This runs the gamut from microscopy and biomedical imaging to nano-scale manufacturing, some of which generate very large datasets requiring efficient transmission and storage.
This RFT represents an excellent opportunity to forge a strategic partnership with the University.
