EGI Technical Forum 2010

Session

Grid Operations Interoperations

14 Sept 2010, 16:00

Yakult Room (Beurs van Berlage)

Description

A growing EGI production infrastructure has to define a basic set of operational interfaces, this touches tools as well as procedures and policies. It should be in the interest of the NGIs to push development in this field and spread their wishes and requests to achieve a smoothless experience for a regional operator on duty.

This session introduces you to the new field of operational interoperability and confronts you with different ideas and approaches to achieve the desired state. We will see already successful examples when it comes to integration of middleware stack services in the current EGI production infrastructure as well as examples where they real work hasn't even started yet. More exact requirements have to be defined and a basic understanding of different viewpoints is hopefully established during this session.

136. Grid Operations Interoperability Overview

Michaela Lechner (EGI.EU)

This session includes a description of the global task O-E-11, Coordination of interoperations between NGIs and with other Grids (EGI.eu), situated under TSA1.3. It will define the goals that are to be achieved in operational interoperability and try to give a rough overview of the status quo. Furthermore the forthcoming and the current version and future development of of Milestone MS407...

137. The Operations Portal and the Grid Operations Interoperability

Cyril Lorphelin (CNRS)

in the Operations Portal information management is mainly ensured with the help of our Web Service Lavoisier. Lavoisier is an extensible service designed to provide an unified view of data collected from multiple heterogeneous data sources. This unified view is represented as XML documents, which can be queried using standard languages, such as XSLT. Lavoisier has proven effective in...

138. Procedures and Policies

Vera Hansper (CSC)

The importance of having procedures and best practices that are valid for all project partners can not be overemphasized. Precise definitions are needed for these to guarantee that OLAs are fulfilled, which in turn is a precondition for a high quality and stable production environment. The heritage of the EGEE projects provide a solid platform on which we stand and from which we can create...

139. Fitting ARC services into the EGI infrastructure

Michael Gronager (NDGF)

14/09/2010, 16:50

The ARC middleware stack can look back at an already successful integration within the EGI production infrastructure. Focus during this session lies on achievments and experiences so far and lessons learned which should be useful for other middleware stacks as well.

140. Operational Integration of UNICORE services

Rebecca Breu

14/09/2010, 17:10

Up to now UNICORE services haven't been deployed in the EGI infrastructure but in D-Grid, DEISA and other infrastructures. The operational model of D-Grid, where Globus, gLite, dCache, and UNICORE are operated, will be used to highlight the challenges of operational integration. Requirements from resource providers and virtual organizations as well as resource usage models will be described to...
