Description
Some things are best demonstrated, especially when it comes to technical services. Just before the coffee break, we offer a 30 minutes slot for submitted demos to show these services, outputs, or any other activity that is relevant to the conference's theme.
The use of clouds for running scientific workloads, in particular for HTC applications, is well established. In recent years the use of clouds for also running HPC applications, which typically require low-latency interconnects, has also been gaining momentum. As such, many platforms have been developed for creating clusters in clouds or enabling local batch systems to burst into clouds....
The Helix Nebula Science Cloud (HNSciCloud) project developed a hybrid cloud linking commercial cloud service providers and research organisations in-house resources via the GÉANT network. Following HNSciCloud, the Open Clouds for Research Environments project (OCRE) leverages its experience in the exploitation of commercial cloud services, currently being considered by the European research...
