Conveners
EGI service to support individual researchers or small collaborations
- Peter Solagna (EGI.EU)
Description
Recognising the need for simpler and more harmonised access for individual researchers and small research groups, aka. members of the long-tail of science the EGI community started to design and prototype a new platform in October 2014.
This activity designs and prototypes a new e-infrastructure platform in EGI to reduce technical overhead requested to access to EGI grid and cloud computing services. The ultimate goal is to ensure that every researcher in Europe who can benefit from EGI services gets access to them.
The goal of this session is to present current status of work being done through demonstration of platform usage and discuss next step of launching the trial.
This session might be of interest to Operations Centers who wants to better support their individual researchers and small research groups.
