2. Main Achievements
Grid Oversight
1. ROD teams news letter
The transition from EGEE to EGI InSPIRE came about with a lot of changes. For Operations, the EGEE Regional Operations Centres, called ROCs, are in the process of being dismantled and their responsibilities transferred to the NGIs, or have already completed this process. In the EGI era, ROD teams will monitor the quality of sites in their country or region, whereas COD is responsible for the global oversight over the whole EGI infrastructure. This is to provide a high-quality grid infrastructure to the user communities. These changes have also leaded us to think about how COD and ROD are going to interact with each other in this new setting. During the Grid Oversight session at the EGI Tech Forum it was made clear to us that people find it cumbersome to travel in order to have regular face to face meetings. Nevertheless, we do feel the need to create and maintain a coherent and alive Grid Oversight community and to have interaction between ROD and COD that goes beyond the dashboards. This is necessary, in our view, to create a top-quality grid infrastructure for our users. For this reason we have created this newsletter. The purpose of this newsletter is to inform you about recent and upcoming developments related to Grid Oversight and to show to you the metrics indicating how well we did the past month. We have published newsletters since december 2011. We will continue to do this on a monthly basis.
