European Infrastructures¶
EOSC¶
The European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) is a pan-European
project designed to create a virtual environment for sharing and accessing research
data across borders and scientific disciplines. The EOSC Portal is the gateway to
this environment, providing a single access point to a wealth of research resources
and services. Here researchers can
- Discover research outputs
- Find datasets, scientific publications and software for your research activities
- Publish Research Outputs
- Store, backup, archive your data, publications, software
- Find Funding Opportunities
- Access Computing and Storage Resource
- Find HPC, IT centers for science, cloud computing, online storage
- Process and analyze
- Verify, organize, transform and integrate data, then export it in the format you need
- Access Training Materials and find lessons, courses, videos
EGI¶
EGI - International Grid & Cloud Infrastructure for Research -
is the federation of computing and storage resource providers united by a mission of
delivering advanced computing and data analytics services for research and innovation.
EGI delivers advanced computing services to support scientists, international projects,
research infrastructures and businesses. The EGI Federation comprises almost 300 data
centers located mainly in Europe in countries represented by the EGI Council.
Additional data centers are hosted by other European countries and integrated
resources in Canada, the USA, Latin America, North Africa, and Asia-Pacific.
In addition to services for business and federation, EGI also offers services for
Research: Their large-scale computing and data analytics services are helping
scientists to accelerate the process leading to research outputs. Their services
are provided by EGI’s federated cloud providers and data centers. They can be
requested by everyone involved in academic research.
Eudat¶
The European Data Infrastructure (EUDAT) or EUDAT
Collaborative Data Infrastructure (EUDAT CDI) is one of the largest infrastructures
of integrated data services and resources supporting research in Europe. It is
sustained by a network of more than 20 European research organizations, data and
computing centers that on September 2016 have signed an agreement to maintain the
EUDAT CDI for the next 10 years and in 2018 have supported the establishment of the
limited liability company, EUDAT Ltd.
This infrastructure and its services have been developed in close collaboration
with over 50 research communities spanning across many different scientific
disciplines and involved at all stage of the design process.
OpenAire¶
OpenAIRE (Open Access Infrastructure for Research in Europe)
stands for a pan-European research information system for representing and linking
research results, aggregating metadata from repositories, archives, scientific
journals, and other infrastructures. OpenAIRE has grown through a series of project
phases funded by the European Commission. The Zenodo research
data repository is one of over 15 products/ services of OpenAIRE.
