DOMA ACCESS 30-04-2019 (Coordinators meeting)

Present: Frank, Ilija, Markus, Stephane and Xavi

Slide with a proposal of a possible roadmap (XE) was discussesd. It has been agreed to:

  • Focus and actively follow the different national initiatives in Europe: UK, IT, FR, ES, DE and US
  • Follow High-End Hardware XCache deployments: SDSC and UC
  • Continue with XCache stress testing (stability)
  • Organise training for XCache deployment
  • Strength bindings with Cost Modelling (to estimate $$$ tag)
  • Keep on working on the emulations, simulations
  • Work on documentation for descriptions, examples and instructions about how to deploy XCache
  • Ilija is inclined for central management on XCache but both scenarios are not exclusives. There will be an hybrid deployment  models of XCache and having a source of information for better practices sounds reasonable.

Actions:

  • Active follow-up of current activities needed: we need to get involved and have an overall vision of what is going on right now, hence
    • Frank will be the link to follow US and Italy activities
    • Xavi will be  the link to follow activities in Spain
    • Stephane will be the link to follow activities in France and UK
    • Markus will be the link to follow activities  in Germany
    • Ilija will be the link to follow the progress of High-End hardware and distributed deployment model
  • Sites and project responsible(s) involved on these activities will be the focus of the following meetings
