The Grid: networked data processing centres and ”middleware” software as the “glue” of resources. Researchers perform their activities regardless geographical location, interact with colleagues, share and access data Scientific instruments and experiments provide huge amount of data The Grid Paradigm Brazil - EU Workshop -08.09.2009
The “global” Grid coverage How to take care of the future of e-infrastructures? Brazil - EU Workshop -08.09.2009

? EELA-2 4/2010 → EELA 4/2008-3/2010 1/2006-12/2007 …and in Latin America ? Brazil - EU Workshop -08.09.2009
EELA & EELA-2 objectives • EELA-2 • Provide an empowered Grid Facility with versatile services fulfilling application requirements • Ensure production quality services • Ensure the long term sustainability of the e-Infrastructure beyond the term of the project • Expand the current EELA e-Infrastructure • Look for new communities outside academia (Industry and Business) EELA • Build a bridge between consolidated e-Infrastructure initiatives in Europe and emerging ones in Latin American • Create a collaboration network to deploy a large portfolio of scientific applications on a well supported Pilot Test-bed • Care in parallel of the training in grid technologies and of the knowledge dissemination and outreach Brazil - EU Workshop -08.09.2009
Projects in numbers EELA (SSA under EU FP6) EELA-2 (CP-CSA under EU FP7) • E-infrastructure shared between Europe and Latin America • EC support: 1.7 M€ • CIEMAT extra support: 0.4 M€ • 10 Countries (3 in Europe) • 2 International Organisations • 20 Members (7 in Europe) • E-sciencegrid facility forEurope andLatinAmerica • EC support: 2.1 M€ • CETA-CIEMAT extra funds: 0.3 M€ • Currently 16 Countries (11 in LA) • 2 new countries (Panama & Uruguay) • 1 International Organisation (CLARA) • Currently 78 Members (62 in LA) • 32 Institutions joining (31 in LA) • Currently 13 JRUs (9 in LA) • 4 new JRUs (3 in LA) At the final review EELA was awarded the highest EC rank: “Good to excellent project” Brazil - EU Workshop -08.09.2009

The EELA-2 proposal • A 3-level organisation is proposed: • Local (RCs ↔ LAN/MAN) • National (NGIs ↔ NRENs) • Continental (LGI ↔ CLARA) • Multi-middleware (gLite, OurGrid, OSG, …) structures: NGIs and LGI must not be middleware dependent • Close synergy with EGI that foresees to support three middleware (ARC, gLite and UNICORE) • Important role of both the LA NRENs and CLARA: fully justified by their participation in EELA and EELA-2 • Even more: e-Infrastructures (Grid) should be part of the NRENs and CLARA structure (cost effective, technically correct, politically easier) Brazil - EU Workshop -08.09.2009 16
The Latin American Grid Initiative (LGI)(http://documents.eu-eela.org/record/1119/files/) (RC: Resource Centre, NGI: National Grid Initiative, GOC: Grid Operation Centre, NREN: National Research & Education Network, NOC: Network Operation Centre, LGI: Latin American Grid Initiative, CLARA: Cooperación Latino Americana de Redes Avanzadas, GSC: Grid Support Centre, NSC: Network Support Centre) Brazil - EU Workshop -08.09.2009
The Latin American Grid Infrastructure - GridLGI • GridLGI is composed, from bottom to top of three layers, each of them including Grid and Network components: • At the lower Institute level: • The Resource Centre (RC) is the actual site of the Grid computing resources; • The backbone LAN or MAN network connects the Computing and Storage Elements (CE & SE) at the RC site; • At the intermediate national level: • The National Grid Initiative (NGI) integrates all Grid Institutions in the country and federates under its Grid Operation Centre (GOC) all their RCs in a National Grid (GridNGI); • The underlying National Research & Education Network (NREN) links country-wide the Research and Education Institutes and optimizes / monitors their network activity via its associated Network Operation Centre (NOC); • At the upper international layer: • The Latin American Grid Initiative (LGI) which brings together all NGIs and supervises the various GridNGIs operation from its Grid Support Centre (GSC); • CLARA: it is the WAN network which integrates the Latin American NRENs and supervises the overall RedCLARA network activity by means of its Network Support Centre (NSC).

Possible structure of a Latin American NGI A strong liaison with the NREN is strongly suggested/recommended. Local conditions permitting, the NGI should be incorporated into the NREN. Brazil - EU Workshop -08.09.2009
