EOSC & Federations: Future research infrastructures
- Jakub Moscicki (CERN)
Building an open and trusted environment for accessing and managing research data and related services, the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) will transform how researchers access and share data and give Europe a global lead in research data management.
The EOSC will federate existing scientific data infrastructures across disciplines and the EU Member States.
Supporting the EU’s Open...
While HIFIS[1] has released its initial Helmholtz Cloud Service Portfolio[2] in October 2020, there has also been specific development in terms of Sync&Share within the Helmholtz Association. The Helmholtz center’s Sync&Share administrators are meeting under the umbrella of HIFIS and are planning possible implementations of a Helmholtz-wide Sync&Share federation, which will be provided as a...
Over the last decade, several CS3 services at universities, research institutions and NRENs have reliably provided data storage and collaborative services to the Scientific Community, normally through Open-Source on-premise solutions. Examples of such CS3 sites include CERNBox, SWITCHdrive, PSNCBox, SURF’s ResearchDrive, DeiC’s ScienceData, AARNet’s CloudSTOR, WWU's Sciebo, JRC’s Earth...
Sync & share services are nowadays a natural component of the cloud computing and storage services. This is also the case of the services and applications provided to academic and research environment in Poland by Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Centre (PSNC), a Polish NREN and HPC center. Since 2015 PSNC provides a country-wide sync & share service based on Seafile software and GPFS...
