Grid Computing La Grid è un’ifrastruttura che permette di connettere Computer e Storage – distrubuiti in diversi domini - permettendo la condivisione di risorse in maniera coordinata e omogenea organizzata in Virtual Organizations Come il Web permette di condividere informationi, la Grid è pensata per permettere di condividere computing power, storage, applicazioni,...

Infrastruttura  La Grid dell’INFN è parte della Grid Italiana gestita dal Consorzio IGI (Italian Grid Infrastructure):  A sua volta IGI è parte della Grid Europea denominata EGI (European Grid Infrastructure):

>340 sites in 57 countries ~337,000 CPU cores >220 PB of storage ~1 million jobs/day ~20,000 users in ~280 VOs

Grid Middleware Grid Middleware. e un'infrastruttura software standard in grado di supportare: Security (Authentication, Authorization & Access Control); Resource Management & Discovery (Files/Replicas, CPU, Memory, Disk Space); Job Submission, Scheduling & Execution; Event Notication; Accounting & Billing. Globus Alliance: standardizzazione dei servizi Grid e tecnologia di riferimento: il Globus Toolkit (

THE EUMEDGRID E-INFRASTRUCTURE EUMEDGRID sites have been deployed in 13 countries, giving a total of 1800 connected Servers and about 84 TBs of storage capacity FEBRUARY 2008

The agINFRA project A data infrastructure to support agricultural scientific communities agINFRA is an Integrated Infrastructure Initiative (I3) project that will try to introduce the agricultural scientific communities into the vision of open and participatory data-intensive science.

Project aim and objectives O1 - A data infrastructure to support agricultural infrastructure scientific communities O2 - Promoting data sharing and development of trust in agricultural sciences Harmonize and Orchestrate a huge amount of heterogeneous agricultural data through the adoption of DCIs (Grid, Cloud) Access the information through simple interfaces and portals easily accessible to wide user communities
