Cern has extended database-clustering technology to enable a single database to run across a number of distributed computers. The LCG database deployment project has set up a worldwide distributed database infrastructure for the LHC. It will do this using a program called Oracle Streams to capture, filter and synchronise data stores worldwide. As well as working with Oracle, IBM also worked with Cern to build a massive Linux-based storage system supplying many terrabytes of disk storage.
