Case studyGrid for plastic industry SMEs Grid on-demand – Collaborative Grid The business model adopted
Context • SMEs require computational resources flexibility • SMEs have a limited number of software licences to achieve computational tasks • They are not able to smooth peaks of activity due to new business Small and Medium Entreprise (<250 employees) Engineering and design Large industry sectors Plastic industry companies (>5000 employees) New product development Submission Subcontractors Mouldmakers Plastic Omnium, Faurecia Visteon , … Automotive Aeronautic Medical, … Polymer molding manufacturer EGEE-Industry - Grid CrunchingDay 071206
Needs • SMEs need to have access to: • additional and complementary computational resources • additional application licences • collaborative workspace + + Remote HPC platform (Grid) Company B (Engineering) + + Company C (Moldmaker) On-demand (Services Grid) Collaborative Grid (Partner Grid) EGEE-Industry - Grid CrunchingDay 071206
ELIS@ - Solution • Grid on-demand: Resources & applications • Applicative services specific to applicative areas such as : • Mechanic; Molecular Modelling; Plastic Simulation; Other • Cooperative project management within the supply chain from the contractor to sub-contractors • Open source portal • Data management MMI : Virtualised view of grid storage • Generic and Interoperable workflow engine : Globus 2.4, 4.0, EGEE (gLite), etc • Workflow submission, monitoring, accounting/billing, etc Enterprise grid with Local Infrastructure and Services for Applications Issued from National R&D project : OpenPlast Grid services have been developed by CS SI Workflow Engine have been developed by CNRS-IN2P3 Plasturgy and SMEs knowledge:PEP (Plasturgy Fedaration) EGEE-Industry - Grid CrunchingDay 071206

ELIS@ Business model for SMEs: e.g Plasturgy (OpenPlast) • Starting point: The Business Plan • Based on well knowledge of application needs and usage. Integrates: • Hosting basis costs (exploitation, administration, …) • Licences costs • CPU and storage costs • Other costs (network, dissemination, sustainability, dissemination, …) • Business perspectives; Period • Models and attempt to pricing: • Basic subscription including hosting • On demand: CPU; Storage; Commercial software • Fixed price: 1 + mono CPU usage • On demand: Commercial software • Fixed price: 2 + full Application suit usage (Fluent, Moldflow 2D, Ansys non parallel, Cast3M) Depending on the model: From 500€ to 4000€ per user per month • Discussion are on going with commercial software editors in order to improve the Grid licensing • Make available license tokens shared within several customers • Distinction of the licensing for pre/post treatment from main treatment EGEE-Industry - Grid CrunchingDay 071206
Going Forward • EGEE intends to build on it initial successes with various business sectors in the context of the European 7th Framework • Foster relations between industry and EGEE based on targeted approach to business • Targeted sectors (Earth observation, Finance, Bio, etc) • More attention in SME, start-up (innovative applications and portals) and collaborative projects (Partner grids) • Innovative solutions & policies & funding schemes & collaboration between industry and Research in commercial Grid adoption • Set the way for commercial exploitation of EGEE technology • Provide solutions in challenges for grid adoption by Industry: Business model; Accounting/billing; Commercial software license policy; Security; SLA; Standardization; etc • Prepare the future for commercial exploitation of EGEE (Red-Hatting of gLite; Network; IT Providers) • Create self-sustainable EGEE Grid\e-Infrastructure Competence Centres “for Industry” in order to provide technical support to the business community • EGEE welcomes your feedback and input EGEE-Industry - Grid CrunchingDay 071206
