22. CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES www.geongrid.org Grid Movement and Replication (with IBM) Data is stored in the postgres database at UTEP on the GEON node. GMR capture service running at UTEP reads and replicates data to the postgres database running at SDSC. GMR apply and monitor service run at SDSC to store data sent by the capture service. OGSA-DAI data access service provides access to database on both UTEP and SDSC nodes. The user application grid service accepts two parameters, –The name of the node you want to access and –An SQL query to get data of interest that will be sent to the grav application. Based on the SQL query an XML query document is generated. Also based on the node, an appropriate service handle is selected. The application grid service invokes the OGSA- DAI grid service handle to access data from the database. The application grid service receives the data, and parses it to extract the relevant data values that are submitted to the grav application.
