Grid, cloud and virtualization
Presentation
The CMS online cluster consists of more than 3000 computers. During the normal work it is used for the Data Acquisition of the CMS experiment at CERN. The sofisticated design and the dedicated software runned on the farm allows to collect up to 20TBytes of data per day.
Considering the huge amount of computing resources under control of the HLT farm, an Openstack cloud layer has been deployed...

Grid, cloud and virtualization
Presentation
The RAL Tier 1 has been making increasing use of virtualisation to provide a platform for development and increasingly production services. More recently we have a stablished a private cloud platform using StratusLab which is now being used extensively across the Tier 1 and the STFC Scientific Computing Department. This talk will discuss the current status and roadmap for the immediate future.

Grid, cloud and virtualization
Presentation
Beginning in 2007, Fermilab has made extensive use of virtualization to deliver services in support of science. Many production services are deployed using virtualization and have realized significant cost savings while delivering improvements in performance and availability.
In 2010, Fermilab initiated the FermiCloud project to deliver a dynamic and scalable Infrastructure-as-a-Service...

Grid, cloud and virtualization
Presentation
vmcaster and vmcatcher try to match the requirements set by the now completed HEPiX virtualisation working group. The EGI federated cloud task force has recommended vmcatcher for installation at all cloud resource providers in their collaboration and the status of the integration with open stack and open nebular. This talk will explain the developments that have occurred in the past year,...

Grid, cloud and virtualization
Presentation
This presentation provides an update on the status of the EGI Federated Cloud Task to the world wide Grid and Cloud communities. Building on the technology and expertise aggregated in over 10 years of successful provisioning and operation of a pan-European Grid Infrastructure, the Task Force further pushes the frontiers of Cloud interoperability enabling user communities to scale their...
