GridFTP and the history of fast file transfer
Original: GridFTP: A Brief History of Fast File Transfer (2024)
The Globus team has published a retrospective on GridFTP, the protocol developed for high-speed transfer of large scientific datasets over grid networks. The piece traces how the tool became a workhorse for physics collaborations and data-intensive research, moving massive files between labs and supercomputing centers for over two decades.
Why now: Researchers and engineers are revisiting the technical history of a protocol still widely used for moving large scientific datasets.
