Those of you working with large datasets know that their size complicates pretty much everything you do, from opening them to analyzing them to sharing them. That's why the team at the Stanford Digital Repository (SDR) has recently devised a better, smoother, faster way for you to move content you want to share from Oak, Sherlock, or Stanford's Google Drive to the SDR using the file transfer service Globus.
