Data Storage Questions

I need storage but I’m not sure whether I need Alcova, Pathfinder or something else. How do I know which one I need?

ARCC offers two main storage services outside of HPC data storage: Alcova and Pathfinder. **Researchers should be aware that neither storage solution is currently approved to store HIPAA data.

  • Alcova is likely appropriate for most users looking for data storage that functions similar to a mapped drive (like /warehouse storage from IT) but specifically for research data.

  • Pathfinder is more appropriate as a cloud based option for secondary backup and archival of data, storing and serving static website content, large data set analytics, and to facilitate the open sharing of data through a web URL.

  • If you’re still not sure, e-mail us at arcc-help@uwyo.edu. We will need to talk to you about your particular use case to identify the most appropriate storage solution.
