Abstract
State-of-the-art gateways are connected to several distributed computing infrastructures (DCIs) that are able to run jobs and workflows simultaneously in all those different DCIs. Data of e-Science applications might be stored on different storage resources, making it difficult for various user communities to browse, access, or update it. This chapter presents the Data Avenue concept and related tools that aim at hiding technical details of accessing different storage resources, and providing an easy-to-use file browsing interface to manage, upload and download, and even transfer data between different types of storage resources. Usage scenarios to exploit Data Avenue services as well as security considerations are discussed.
