Description
The SKA Observatory networks need to be independent from the UMAN networks before the SKA Observatory reaches IGO status. The SKA Observatory must have full control of their network infrastructure. The SKA Observatory will rely heavily on external connectivity to the telescope sites and cloud resources, and therefore requires a reliable and stable connection to the outside world.
Work with UMAN and JISC to define a number of options that will allow all entities at the Jodrell Bank Observatory to have redundant and reliable external connectivity whilst allowing the SKA Observatory to become independent of the UMAN network infrastructure.
Create a document that describes each option, and its associated costs, and include a recommended solution.
