EGI Contribution to the EOSC Federation

Compute, storage, research objects, services and analytics tools are integral to the Open Science Commons and the realisation of the EOSC vision. This paper describes how EGI Federation envisages their provision as a collaborative effort of Research Infrastructures and e-Infrastructures, to jointly provide compute and co-located data services for international, grand challenge applications under the EOSC Node architecture.

This discussion paper reflects the EGI Federation's current thinking on collaborative service provision within the EOSC framework. We believe a strong, collaborative approach is essential for the success of EOSC. We welcome your feedback and insights, which will inform the further development of this position.
