Combining services at the IaaS level to support science workflows
The R&D services to be developed are to be integrated with resources in data centres operated by the buyers group and the GEANT network as part of a hybrid model
ChallengesInnovative IaaS level cloud services integrated with procurers in-house resources and public e-infrastructure to support a range of scientific workloads
Compute and Storagesupport a range of virtual machine and container configurations including HPC working with datasets in the petabyte range accessible transparently
Network Connectivity and Federated Identity Managementprovide high-end network capacity via GEANT for the whole platform with common identity and access management
Service Payment Modelsexplore a range of purchasing options to determine those most appropriate for the scientific application workloads to be deployed
