This is the collection of contributions created within "NEARDATA: Extreme Near-Data Processing Platform ", Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Action (Grant Agreement 101092644).

The goal of NEARDATA is to create an extreme data infrastructure mediating data flows between Object Storage and Data Analytics platforms across the Compute Continuum. Our novel XtremeDataHub platform is an intermediary data service that intercepts and optimises data flows (S3 API, stream APIs) with highperformance near-data connectors (Cloud/Edge). Finally, our unique Data Broker service will provide secure data access and orchestration of dispersed data sources thanks to TEEs and federated learning architectures. Our NEARDATA platform is a novel technology for data mining of large and dispersed unstructured data sets that can be deployed in the Cloud and in the Edge (HPC, IoT Devices), that leverages advanced AI technologies and offers a novel confidential cybersecurity layer for trusted data computation.
