Description

The present document aims to define the setup of the ARTEMIS infrastructure, in terms of resources and related services that will be made available for both data and application management. As such, the document describes the technical solutions selected for implementation and integration within the infrastructure, providing different services to the ARTEMIS community.

These activities have taken place within WP7, which is divided into three tasks, concerning the cloud infrastructure (7.1), the data infrastructure (7.2) and the services infrastructure (7.3).

For the purposes of this document, tasks 7.1 and 7.3 have been combined into a single section incorporating topics such as resource provisioning, container deployment and container orchestration. We also promote best practices to port cultural heritage applications onto the cloud platform provided for the ARTEMIS project and give a set of recommendations to ensure security, resilience and usability of those applications and services made available to the community as cloud-enabled tools.

With regard to task 7.2, the document covers areas including data management, analysis, and enrichment of cultural heritage information in a digital twin ecosystem. In addition to the implementation of existing tools for these purposes, we describe our initial experimentation with the application of AI technologies. We also provide a detailed description of the ARTEMIS ontology and its interaction with new and existing controlled vocabularies, as well as presenting the ontology itself in its entirety as an appendix.
