Proposed policy framework roadmap • Interoperable Authentication and Authorisation infrastructures as the basis for seamless sharing of eInfrastructure resources. In order of priority: • endorsement by eIRG of EUGridPMA (Policy Manag. Authority) and TERENA TACAR - concrete first step toward common EU authentication policies • user privacy preservation ... • VO Resource Provisioning & Accounting • Policy enforcement mechanisms
Registry/Repository of European ICT-resources and policies for e-Science EU, National funding to enhance / strengthen structure of eInfrastructure policy initiative International collaboration Creation of Organisational framework (governance, information and training programmes etc) eIRG policy endorsement and recommendations Parallel actions
Some issues to consider next... • A more structured and intensive mechanism for policy endorsement / provision of recommendations by eIRG • Ensure all key actors are involved in next phases (role for studies…) and efforts are well co-ordinated with other relevant initiatives (e.g. GN2, upgrade of NRENs, ...) • A time plan … • Establishment of a MoU based on eIRG recommendations ?
Relevance of initiative to industry/business? Some facts... • Business relationships (e.g. User-Provider, Provider-Provider) more distinct; standards, SLAs, etc play a key role • Integration Grid- and Web-Services - traditional business chains subject to change! • Currently grassroots adoption of Web (and Grid) services – systematic deployment and new business models still due… Needtolearnmoreandunderstand the new business models • Policies on AAA and resource sharing may well provide paradigms for business (e.g. Provider-Provider agreements…) • Need to early expose our work to industry/business!
