Compendium of existing approaches, existing services, technical solutions and policies for the federation of data and compute infrastructures

A comprehensive compendium on existing services and infrastructures provided to the HEP and RA communities and beyond, and the identification of gaps, challenges, and opportunities for future projects of the HEP and RA communities. This includes best practices, a description of software and hardware components especially suited to address the problems of the communities (formulated in the Compendium of Use Cases), and policies for federated compute and data continuum.
Exploitation Path
Target groups:
- Scientific Communities within RIs with data-intensive computing needs, with a focus on RA and HEP
- Computing & Data Service Providers & e-Infrastructures.
Exploitation path: While these results are functional to develop both the Technical Blueprint and the SRIDA , they will be of great interest for other research communities and computing providers; they increase the level of understanding of data-intensive science and can be reused, and therefore, the use of existing solutions and services will be increased.
Ownership and access rights: Collective work of the contributing experts, jointly owned by consortium partners; and shared under a permissive licence following open science principles.
