DS3 : New Infrastructure

brief intro

DS3 : New Infrastructure

Scope

Quoting from the VOTech proposal:

To design mature infrastructure components for EuroVO
To assess key new infrastructural technologies
To ensure interoperability and international integration

...and with a little detail thrown in:

This task aims at producing final designs of mature components, as well as assessments, designs and trials of new components that don't fit into the major categories of DS4-6. It is expected that the priority areas will be in authentication/authorisation; in work-flow and in distributed storage (VOSpace). In addition, DS3 has a responsibility for considering interoperability, integration and testing within the context of the overall EuroVO architecture and hence liaising with the VOFC. This will also include full internationalisation of the EuroVO programme, designing customisation tools for deployment across Europe and mix-and-match integration with other projects. DS3 will also have the prime responsibility for liaising with the NA4 work-package of the FP6 programme Enabling Grids for E-Science in Europe (EGEE).

Stage Plans and Reports

Design Study Report

The final outcome of each Design Study will be a report which summarises achievements and proposes a way forward for the EuroVO in that area. These reports will be produced first in draft form and the final versions delivered at the endof the project. DS3 is the first study required to produce a report and it will be developed collaboratively here, on the wiki, by those working in the field.
