  4. Application integration samples EGEE07 Conference, Budapest, Hungary, 1-5 October ‘07

  5. What problems are addressed • Complex IT infrastructure • Difficult to optimally leverage resources • Different programs, applications, GUIs, OS, SAN, SOA • ASP, compute-on-demand, Compute Centers • Data security • Make available only selected services and datasets • Supply chain collaboration and integration • Identity management • Skyrocketing data volumes & license costs • License costs constantly increase footprint in IT budget • Data sets grow beyond average workstation resources • Complex, slow, ad-hoc collaboration

  6. Benefits for the IT manager • Reduced costs • Menu-based, intuitive, application-centric interface • Broaden and maximizes the exploitation of the IT infrastructure • Lower client TCO • Reduced risks • Evolves with your IT infrastructure and Grid • Align with company’s IT security policies • Controlled access to data and information • Exploitation of Server Consolidation/Virtualization • Black-box, application-level virtualization • One-stop-shop for computing, visualization, data • Only one customization for multiple access media / patterns EGEE07 Conference, Budapest, Hungary, 1-5 October ‘07

  12. Platform CAE Bundle

  13. Market Electronics Value proposition Collaboration infrastructure for EDA projects Before the project FTP / mail data exchange Testing performed scheduling human meetings Training / mentoring overhead Solution NICE EnginFrame NICE DataGate Platform LSF Case Study: Accent • Benefits • From concept to production in 2 weeks • Easier project tracking • Up to 15% speed up of projects in critical testing / acceptance phases • Better customer experience

  14. Case Study: Statoil • Industry • Oil & Gas • Location • 4 sites in Norway & 1 in US • Business challenge • Job-Submission and Job- and Data-Monitoring of ECLIPSE Jobs in Distributed Clusters • Major effort maintaining scripting submission environment • Solution • EnginFrame • LSF MultiCluster • Benefits • Reduced spendings by Millions • Seamless Portal View and Management of distributed Grid EGEE07 Conference, Budapest, Hungary, 1-5 October ‘07

  15. Market Gov & Life Sciences Value proposition User-friendly portal for the Life Science user community (VO) Context TeraGrid-like funded project 2° largest European Grid Connects the 11 largest HPC centers in Europe Complex security policies Solution NICE EnginFrame NICE DataGate Custom enhancements (will be included in v5.x) Benefits IT & App managers happy not to re-invent the wheel HPC centers want it locally, too Excellent reference Case study: DEISA EGEE07 Conference, Budapest, Hungary, 1-5 October ‘07

  16. You may already know GENIUS… EGEE07 Conference, Budapest, Hungary, 1-5 October ‘07

  17. A-WARE Project Goals • A-WARE - An easy Way to Access GRID Resources • Simplify users’ experience • life (focus on problems) • way of perceiving the GRID • Fill an existing gap • between middleware and portals • Portals + A-WARE + UNICORE/GS aim to be a completely integrated solution • Contribute to the standards EGEE07 Conference, Budapest, Hungary, 1-5 October ‘07

  18. Workflow Design: layout BPMN notation Dataflow Elements Tasks Cycle Elements EGEE07 Conference, Budapest, Hungary, 1-5 October ‘07

  19. Highlights of EnginFrame 5.0 • Porting to Windows Server platform • New middleware integrations • Windows CCS, Altair PBS, IBM LoadLeveler, gLite • Web 2.0 enhancements • AJAX based services for rich user interaction • Google Web Toolkit integration for rich UI design • Integration of remote spooler management • Java-based scripting support for service development • Security improvements • Encrypted agent-server connection • Context-sensitive extensions for the authorization system • Administration improvements • New graphical installer • Simplified plug-in installation and life cycle management EGEE07 Conference, Budapest, Hungary, 1-5 October ‘07
