DESCRIPTION:\n	Large scale computing has evolved since the present Compute
 r Centre infrastructure and tools were designed to manage the first years 
 of LHC data taking. Today we can see the scaling limitations of some of th
 em and questions are raised over the role of traditional batch systems in 
 the future\; many tools and technologies exist in the public domain to man
 age facilities at large scale. This\, together with changes to the way we 
 will provide computing in the future\, lead us to reassess the tools used 
 to manage the infrastructure and the way in which services are managed.\n\
 n	The CERN Computer Centre will soon be extended with a remote facility\, 
 and virtualization and other technologies allow us to provide services in 
 new ways. This talk will describe the work being done in IT to modernize t
 he tools and infrastructure to allow us to manage machines and services at
  significantly larger scales than today\,  how we will make use of virtua
 lization to more effectively use the computing resources\, and the implica
 tions of the addition of a remote extension to the Computer Centre. It wil
 l also cover how we see cloud services playing a role in the future at CER
 N and how these can be seen as complementary to the grid and traditional s
 ervices.\n\nhttp://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=185636
