We're in the (very long, drawn-out) process of integrating much of our local 
bioinformatics resources to also deal with this problem.  We have a general 
plan in place, including adding automated tape backup and a number of other 
features on the analysis end (storage for fast I/O, etc), but I'm interested in 
hearing more from others on this.

Might be worth asking on the bioinformatics core facilities mailing list
too, I know some of the folk there use Galaxy in their institutes:

[galaxy-dev] Data Retention Policies

2011-10-23 Thread John Chilton

Hello All,

This is more of a general policy question. The head of our Research 
Informatics Support Systems group here at the University of Minnesota 
wants to know how other institutions are handling the large amount of 
data generated by next generation sequencing facilities and processed by 
local Galaxy instances. Specifically, I think she is interested in what 
sort of data retention policies institutions have in place - for 
instance how long do you store data, what sort of quotas do you put in 
place, what sort of backups do you have in place, etc


Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks for your time,
-John
