Background
The technical and scientific personnel working in the fields of
spectral and geospatial exploitation (SGE) acquire, process,
analyze, store and manage sensor data. For example, technology
demonstration projects have generated nearly 120terabytes (TB)
of acquisition data and this could grow to 300TB by the end of
2016.

At all times, personnel use computer systems to support these
business processes in conducting their classified and
unclassified research and development (R&D). The systems in
place are of varying complexity; they evolve according to needs,
the nature of activities and new technologies on the market. The
computing infrastructure for centralized exploitation of large
volumes of classified data is an example of the type of systems
to be administered that are based on an advanced storage
technology known as network-attached storage (NAS) scale-out
connected to an optical fibre network with a 10 Gbps transfer
rate.

Research and Development Canada's (DRDC) SGE section. These
