EGI-InSPIRE The EGI Perspective A European federated community cloud for the Open Science Commons T. Ferrari, EGI.eu Technical Director COMMENTS/QUESTIONS: http://go.egi.eu/livedoc Federated Community Cloud Services for e-Science: EGi-GEANT Symposium 1 www.egi.eu www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323 EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323
Why a federated cloud? Provide a distributed cloud infrastructure that federates existing community cloud infrastructures in Europe Allowing the on-demand hosting of community-specific services Providing processing capabilities suitable to the distributed nature of big data Allowing single sign on Providing the needed level of trust and security Promoting the adoption of cloud open standards Commercial and publicly funded cloud providers Federated Community Cloud Services for e-Science: EGi-GEANT Symposium 2 www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323
The principles of federation Federated AAI One accounting system Monitoring services VM image management across multiple different cloud middleware frameworks and contextualization Data access and transfer Cloud service information Brokering Federated Community Cloud Services for e-Science: EGi-GEANT Symposium 3 www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323
For which customer groups? Academy International Research communities SMEs and Industry an innovation space for the big data value chain of Europe Discovery, sharing, use and re-use of big data for added value services Education Federated Community Cloud Services for e-Science: EGi-GEANT Symposium 4 www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323
At which cost? The EGI Federated Cloud relies on the existing services for federating NGIs/EIROs already provided as production services Federated Community Cloud Services for e-Science: EGi-GEANT Symposium 5 www.egi.eu EGI-InSPIRE RI-261323
