ESnet Data and AI Workshop Report

In February 2025, the DOE user facility Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) held a three-day Data and AI Workshop in Berkeley, California. The objective of the workshop was to identify challenges within ESnet that could be addressed through data-driven methods, to help define ESnet’s data-analysis requirements, and to shape its AI strategy, guiding data-stewardship efforts and the direction of AI research and AIOps exploration for ESnet7, the next iteration of ESnet’s network. This report summarizes the multi-faceted discussions and findings and presents a set of recommendations for next steps.

ROBIN (RuciO/BIgData Express/SENSE) A Next-Generation High-Performance Data Service Platform

Increasingly, scientific research discoverydepends on the analysis of extremely large amounts of data. Thisdata is gathered through very large scientific instruments, verylarge numbers of small devices, and mid-scale instruments.These devices generate exponentially increasing volumes of data.Such data is often obtained, analyzed, stored, visualized, andtransferred at and among sites world-wide by largecollaborations of science communities. Managing and movingextremely large volumes of data across today’s networks is aspecial multidimensional challenge. Also, existing datamanagement and movement services and tools often areinadequate to address all specific requirements. This paperdescribes the various components of this challenge and howthose issues can be addressed by ROBIN, a uniquecomprehensive set of integrated services designed specificallyfor managing and moving extremely large amounts of data overlong distances, e.g., thousands of miles around the globe. Thispaper also describes the results of initial experiments using thatset of integrated services.

BigData Express: Toward Schedulable, Predictable, and High-Performance Data Transfer

Big Data has emerged as a driving force for scientific discoveries. Large scientific instruments (e.g., colliders, and telescopes) generate exponentially increasing volumes of data. To enable scientific discovery, science data must be collected, indexed, archived, shared, and analyzed, typically in a widely distributed, highly collaborative manner. Data transfer is now an essential function for science discoveries, particularly within big data environments. Although significant improvements have been made in the area of bulk data transfer, the currently available data transfer tools and services can not successfully address the high-performance and time-constraint challenges of data transfer required by extreme-scale science applications for the following reasons: disjoint end-to-end data transfer loops, cross-interference between data transfers, and existing data transfer tools and services are oblivious to user requirements (deadline and QoS requirements). Fermilab has been working on the BigData Express project to address these problems. BigData Express seeks to provide a schedulable, predictable, and high-performance data transfer service for big data science. The BigData Express software is being deployed and evaluated at multiple research institutions, which include UMD, StarLight, FNAL, KISTI, KSTAR, SURFnet, Ciena, and other sites. Meanwhile, the BigData Express research team is collaborating with the StarLight International/National Communications Exchange Facility to deploy BigData Express at various research platforms, including Pacific Research Platform, National Research Platform, and Global Research Platform. It is envisioned that we are working toward building a high-performance data transfer federation for big data science.
