Description
The management of databases plays a crucial role in different scientific domains like Earth Science, High Energy Physics, Life Science, etc. In the EGI-InSPIRE context, the GRelC project has been supporting the HUC from several points of view through the development of domain-based use cases, tutorial activities, website, etc.
A key activity related to the GRelC task (as part of the HUC support) is the DashboardDB interface. It aims at providing a web access interface to the database resources available in the EGI production grid. Such a “registry” complements the functionalities provided by the EGI Application Database and will support the users through social-oriented functionalities such as the possibility to post messages on the DashboardDB platform, create discussion groups, rate existing resources, etc. The users will be able to publish their resources and discover new ones already deployed through search & discovery functionalities.
During the talk, the most relevant outcomes related to the first year of activity on the GRelC task will be presented and discussed.
