  1. (eInfrastructure and Grids for e-Regions) Jan Gruntorád, CEO CESNET

  2. eIGeR project - summary • EU Structural funds - Operational programme R & DI (Research and Development for Innovations) - 85% , administred and supported by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports – 15% • The project is listed in national roadmap of large infrastructures (responds to the lack of data storage centers and computing resources) • Monitoring indicator: number of organizations using the reconstructed e-infrastructure (target value 60) • Preparatory phase: 1. 1. 2010 – 30. 4. 2011 • Implementation phase: 1. 5. 2011 – 31. 10. 2013 • Sustainability phase: 1. 11. 2013 – 31. 10. 2018

  3. eIGeR project – summary (cont.) • The project is focused mainly for investment (advanced services and e-infrastructure applications are covered by complementary project) • Total planned expenditure of the project: 754 million CZK / 27.9 million EUR* (of which eligible costs CZK 599.285 million / 22.2 million EUR*) • Total eligible investment expenditures: 493 million CZK / 18.3 million EUR* • Total eligible non-investment expenditures: 41.7 million CZK / 1.5 million EUR* • Total ineligible expenditures: 139.3 million CZK / 5.2 million EUR* (*) exchange rate 27 CZK/EUR was used

  4. Aims of the project: • Qualitative and quantitative improvement of regional access to national and European research and development infrastructures • Significant improvement of Communication Infrastructure in the regions • in order to better utilize pan-European network GÉANT • Building a National Grid Infrastructure (NGI) • Create storage infrastructure for R&D • Expansion of the existing system for remote collaboration • Commissioning of new services (mainly in storage and computational domain)

  5. Project activity Communication infrastructure: • Increasing capacity of communication infrastructure and access interfaces (installation of terabit routers with 100 Gbps support) • Acquisition and installation of terabit routers, network interfaces and DWDM systemto locations Brno, Hradec Králové, Olomouc, Liberec, Plzeň, České Budějovice, Ostrava, Pardubice, Zlín, Ústí nad Labem and Jihlava • Reconstruction / upgrade of main DWDM optical transmission circuit system Praha - Brno - Olomouc - Hradec Králové - Praha (it is possible simultaneously transmit 80 wavelengths - before the project was only 32) • Reconstruction / upgrade of management and monitoring systems for DWDM and IP/MPLS networks • Opportunity to build a user end-to-end channels with high throughput • Increasing redundancy and complementing core network routers CRS-3/16 and main DWDM nodes

  6. CESNET2 Optical Topology

  7. CESNET2 IP/MPLS Topology

  8. Project activity National Grid Infrastructure (NGI): • Acquisition of computing cluster in Plzeň and its subsequent extension of accumulated funds • Integration of the cluster into the NGI and EGI • Acquisition of application software packages (compilers, debuggers, Fluent, Matlab, GPFS) • Acquisition of GPU computing cluster for NGI in Ostrava • Integration with other components of e-infrastructure (especially data storages and communication infrastructure)

  9. NGI Resources

  10. Project activityData Storage Infrastructure: • Building a system of three geographically separate data repositories interconnected by high-speed network (robust solution enabling backups at remote locations) • Based on the HSM principle (Hierarchical Storage Management) - a combination of disk arrays and tapes • Acquisition of HSM storage systems in locations Plzeň, Jihlava and Brno • Total raw capacity about 21 PB • Technologically heterogeneous infrastructure; standalone tender for every storage system

  11. Data Storage Infrastructure

  12. Project activity Collaboration environment: • Increasing capacity and improving videoconferencing infrastructure in the regions • Acquisition of webconferencing server • Acquisition of multipoint videoconferencing unit - MCU • Purchase of unit for sessions recording and streaming • Acquisition of solution for videoconferencing software clients (H.323/SIP)

  13. Project sustainability: • Duration: 5 years from the completion of the implementation phase • Commitment to keep the purchased equipment in operation (at least at the same technical level) • Need to keep the target value of the monitoring indicator • Any financial costs are covered by CESNET (operating costs as well as potential reinvestment), spending of subsidies only take place during the implementation phase of the project
