• Based on outcome and recommendations of high level experts and reflection groups (eIRG, GEG, HLEG-SD, etc.)
• In collaboration with the EIROForum members • A hybrid public-private service model (subsidized and
pay-per-use) providing: • Base infra services (networks, support for FIM) • A small number of facilities providing cloud and data
services • A marketplace of services, software and tools from
communities, service and technology providers (EUDAT, BioMedBrdges, iMarine, many others) in curated public repositories
• A network of Research Accelerator Hubs • Two prototypes in 2014, CERN and EMBL-EBI
A European cloud computing partnership: big science teams up
with big business

Strategic Plan
� Establish multi-tenant, multi-provider cloud infrastructure
� Identify and adopt policies for trust, security and privacy
� Create governance structure
� Define funding schemes
To support the computing
capacity needs for the ATLAS
experiment
Setting up a new service to simplify analysis of large genomes, for a deeper insight
into evolution and biodiversity
To create an
Earth Observation platform, focusing
on earthquake and volcano
research
Adopters
To improve the
speed and quality of research for
finding surrogate biomarkers based on brain images

Helix Nebula Marketplace • Builds upon the work undertaken as part of the EC
funding project and overall initiative
• Support by European cloud providers and integration with existing e-Infrastructures, a hybrid cloud Computing Market Place and open for new Cloud Providers
• Trusted cloud services through compliance with EU regulations and legislation
• Simplified procurement process for multiple cloud services
• Offered to the global scientific community, for both publicly-funded and commercial Research and Technology Organizations, offering large-scale and HPC-type deployments from the start.
• A focus on transparency and impartiality of the brokerage function. Trust is important.
