Data Management is the most significant challenge to many user communities within EGEE. It also represents one of the main uses of e-infrastructure - the large scale computational analysis of large volumes of data.

Now that the e-infrastructure exists to store and analyse the data, the next challenge for many end-users is how to derive information and gain knowledge from the raw data to meet their research objectives.
The presentations cover two broad areas - the standards being used to provide consistent access to the data management services and the services that form the operational e-infrastructure. These presentations will include:
