Grid, Cloud & Virtualisation
Oral presentation
This talk will provide an update on the CERN private infrastructure-as-a-service cloud which is now in production based on OpenStack
Grizzly. Along with the current status, we will give plans for the next developments and evolution of the service in areas such as
block storage using ceph and Netapp, Kerberos and X.509 support and scaling to multiple cells across CERN's two data centres.

Oral presentation
The talk presents some past and ongoing testings made around IAAS cloud technologies at IN2P3-CC. Openstack has been deployed for some years now, involved in a variety of projects. The presentation tackles:
- Openstack: the CMP of choice
- use cases with test and production services, computing, community cloud
- implemented features, hardware and services
- impacts on the datacenter
-...

Oral presentation
In 2010, Fermilab initiated the FermiCloud project to deliver a dynamic and scalable Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) capability using open source cloud computing frameworks to support the needs of the Fermilab scientific communities. A collaboration of personnel from Fermilab and the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information (KISTI) has focused significant work over the past 18...

The PanDA Production ANd Distributed Analysis system has been developed by ATLAS to meet the experiment's requirements for a data-driven workload management system for production and distributed analysis processing capable of operating at LHC data processing scale. After 7 years of impressively successful PanDA operation in ATLAS there are also other experiments which can benefit from PanDA in...

Oral presentation
Even with the growing interest in cloud computing, grid-based submission to traditional batch systems is still the primary way for the experiments to run jobs at WLCG sites. Integrating a batch system with virtualised worker nodes on a cloud potentially offers sites many benefits. At RAL we have recently investigated making opportunistic use of a private StratusLab cloud when it has unused...

Oral presentation
In the last three years the CernVM Filesystem (CernVM-FS) has transformed the distribution of experiment software to WLCG grid sites. CernVM-FS removes the need for local installations jobs and performant software at sites, in addition it often improves performance at the same time. Furthermore the use of CernVM-FS standardizes the computing environment across the grid and removes the need for...

OpenShift has three offerings, Origin, Online, and Enterprise. Now you can enjoy the benefits of Paas in the public cloud, or on your own cloud.
I will be showing OpenShift Origin, setup locally. What features does it have for both admin and user. How will that help both labs and experiments.
