Computing and Storage Resources

EGI

EGI (European Grid Infrastructure) is a project willing to create and maintain a pan-European Grid Infrastructure in collaboration with National Grid Initiatives (NGIs) in order to guarantee the long-term availability of a generic e-infrastructure for all European research communities and their international collaborators. The European Grid Infrastructure will (1) Operate a secure integrated production grid infrastructure that seamlessly federates resources from providers around Europe, (2) Coordinate the support of the research communities using the European infrastructure, and (3) Work with software providers within Europe and worldwide to provide high-quality innovative software solutions that deliver the capability required by user communities. EGI provides storage and computing resources, distributed across hundreds of sites worldwide and is based on different interoperable grid middleware solutions such as Globus, gLite, Arc, and Unicore. The resources offered by the EGI infrastructure will significantly extend the storage and computing capacity available under the D4ScienceAn e-Infrastructure operated by the D4Science.org initiative. Ecosytem. These resources will be accessible from the D4ScienceAn e-Infrastructure operated by the D4Science.org initiative. Ecosystem under a Research Collaboration Model.

The EGI sites supporting the d4science.research-infrastructures.eu VOVirtual Organization; provide the following services to the D4ScienceAn e-Infrastructure operated by the D4Science.org initiative. Ecosystem:
