AAAI for EPOS Daniele Bailo, Mariusz Sterzel
Agenda EPOS Infrastructure Typical EPOS use case AA(A)I use case & requirements
EPOS services EPOS Integrated Core Services. Provide access to: multidisciplinary data, data products, synthetic data from simulations, processing and visualization tools Thematic Core Services are infrastructures to provide data services to specific communities (they can be international organizations, such as ORFEUS for seismology) National Research Infrastructures and facilities provide services at national level and send data to the European thematic data infrastructures.
Compatibility layer ICS/TCS comunication Metadata catalogue+APIs Web Services AAI mechanisms (deleg.) COMPATIBILITY LAYER
ICS-C, ICS-D & TCS ICS-D Processing, visualization EPOS ICS-C Integration, resource orchestration COMPATIBILITY LAYER CERIF-BASED EPOS Metadata Catalog wrapper wrapper wrapper National Facility TCS (WGs) Institutional facilities

EPOS COMPETENCE CENTER Task SA2.9 - EPOS (Leader: INFN/INGV, M16 M30) The task will operate a CC to drive the future design of the use of grid and cloud for the integrated solid Earth Sciences research as part of the European Plate Observing System (EPOS). The CC will 1. identify and validate authentication and authorisation services, 2. will test cloud resources and usage models, 3. provide knowledge transfer services between e- Infrastructure and EPOS communities.
USE CASE #1 A basic multidisciplinary use case, discovery of heterogeneous data from the ICS-C portal by a user who wants to discover and access (e.g. download) such data. EPOS IdP OTHER HTC SERVICES EPOS ICS-C External IdP SEISMOLOGICAL SERVICES ANTHROPOGENIC HAZARD SERVICES
USE CASE #2 Single discipline computational oriented use case, usage, from user s side, of a computational seismology tool which orchestrates the access to data and to computational resources on behalf of the user EPOS IdP OTHER HTC SERVICES EPOS ICS-C External IdP SEISMOLOGICAL SERVICES ANTHROPOGENIC HAZARD SERVICES
Further requirements IdP (internal, external like eduGAIN, OpenID, social media ) Application of grid certificates as we know it today is not possible. But online CA with invisible certificates YES Attribute based authorization to support different authorization levels for the users Web access and non-web access Need for delegation YES Support for different level of assurance credentials, and need to use the information about users with lower level of assurance credentials to limit their capability
