Description

DIRAC has started a collaboration with EGI.eu to provide open access to the european e-Infrastructure and beyond with a dedicated DIRAC service. During a pilot phase several communities have been invited to join the initiative to validate the approach. The experience will be reported during a dedicated session and new communities will be offered the possibility to join. To extend the impact of the initiative several actions are foreseen during this Community Forum. In particular interested communities will be offered to participate on a Networking session with DIRAC 4 EGI team to present their use cases and prepare a work plan to collaborate. Given the past experience it is expected that some of the use cases could be incorporated to the initiative during the CF. This session will be dedicated to work hand by hand with those communities that are ready to be incorporated in a kind of accelerated training.

Wider impact and conclusions

Extend open access to european e-Infrastructure (grids, clouds, volunteer, others) including access to commercial resources when necessary to new research communities and users.
