Presentation Transcript

  1. NGS Response to ‘AStrategic Plan for the UK Research Computing Ecosystem’ Cloudscape III - EGI Use Case

  2. Input Sources • Collaboration Board • Member institutions represented by higher management (e.g. PVC-Research) nominated member of staff to give authoritative institutional view • Representatives of National and International(ESFRI) projects

  3. Collaboration Board Meeting 6th July • Birmingham • Bristol • Brunel • Cardiff • Leeds • Liverpool Manchester Oxford Southampton STFC Royal Holloway York

  4. Institutional Feedback • Data must be a first class citizen • Data management policy requirements; • How can data be made Open Access within collaborative research projects but still curated as per RC requirements? • Requirement for scaling from institutional (from Desktops via HPC clusters) to national and international resources • Multi faceted entry mechanisms to e-infrastructure are a necessity • Shared services using licensed software must be handed in more common ways • Must have common mechanisms for accounting and reporting to institutions about services used on external e-Infrastructure, including commercial providers

  5. Projects Meeting (24th June) • ELIXIR – Andrew Lyall (EBI) • LifeWatch– Alex Hardisty (Cardiff) • EURO-ARGO – Justin Buck (BODC) • sLHC/WLCG – John Gordon (STFC) • CLARIN/DARIAH – Martin Wynne (OeRC) • DIRAC – Jeremy Yates (UCL) • Digital Social Research – Megan Meredith-Lobay (OeRC) 

  6. Projects Input for the 8th July • e-infrastructure is a wide and diverse area, it cannot be pigeon holed into any single type of resource to the detriment of others, all types must be available in a co-ordinated manner. • Many problems communities face are not technical but social, we must not try to impose technical solutions that don’t fit • Projects are increasingly looking to services rather than physical resources, but wish to see new types of resource available in a co-ordinated manner alongside more traditional systems • Some projects already have resources they wish to aggregate and are/have been working with the NGS currently, e.g. DiRAC, NeISS, NSCCS, SKA, CCP4. • Some projects have extremely strong RC participation and this will shape other researchers from their domain

  7. Future • The NGS including current and future stakeholders fully supports the vision of a more integrated e-Infrastructure to support academic research in the UK • We must build on experience taking note of successes and failures to ensure that we move forward as a community
