  2. What is ApGrid? • Asia Pacific Grid (ApGrid) is a Grid testbed on the Asia Pacific region which aims to create Asia Pacific partnership for Grid computing. • The objectives of the ApGrid are to: • Build an international Grid testbed to explore issues related to Grid technology and application. • Act as an interface to global grid effort such as GGF. • Share resources, knowledge, and technologies. • Collaborate and build upon each other’s work. • Encourage application communities and assist in using our technologies along with others. • Build, nurture, and promote ApGrid technologies and applications. • Provide a venue for sharing and exchanging information/ideas and help initiate new projects.

  3. Grid Testbed • Hardware • Make existing platforms accessible to the regional community • Coordinate approaches to deploying network-enabled, data-intensive Grid compute resources • Software • Middleware; adoption of current technologies and coordinated development and improvement • Distributed data management environments; deployment of software layers to allow researchers to share data collections • Portals; providing interfaces to allow greater number of people to interact with the resources • Operations • Grid Operations Centers (GOCs) • User services and support • Policies relating to sharing of resources

  4. Grid Ops is more than technology… • We need to establish working environments that allow network engineers, system administrators, user services personnel, application developers and end users to proactively monitor, manage, access and understand resources that span many sites. • This may require use of commercial solutions, development of new tools, training of staff, interaction with third-party application developers, and outreaching to user communities. • This may require the support of our funding agencies and institutions to encourage exchange of resources

  5. Grid Operations Working Group • Several Grid projects are beginning to address the complex issues of Grid Operations and are preparing to establish a working group. • This may be a good opportunity for ApGrid sites to participate as we work to understand the issues and solutions toward making the Grid a valuable shared resource.
