euCanSHare. Deliverables D2.1 - Initial Infrastructure framework and documentation

euCanSHare deliverable D2.1 reporting on the initial infrastructure of the framework and documentation.

Abstract: EuCanSHare aims to establish a unified environment for cardiovascular data sharing and analysis. The euCanSHare data platform will provide support for i) a unified Data Catalogue combining in a single site all data managed by the project; ii) a platform to manage data access credentials; iii) a computational platform that combines controlled access to data, analysis and visualization tools.
This document describes the technological foundations of the euCanSHare data portal. It is a cloud-based environment providing the computational infrastructure for data management and analysis, an authentication and authorization system, and the necessary user interfaces. The document is organized as follows: Section 1 describes the motivation and overall strategy; section 2 summarizes the design of the infrastructure; software components are described in detail in section 3 and finally, section 4 outlines the development roadmap until the release of the first complete prototype (M24).
