About

Starting from Sept. 2017 the EGI Applications on Demand (AoD) service is one of the EGI services publicly available in the EGI Marketplace.

The EGI Marketplace is the entry point for researchers to discover and access the advanced computing services and tools they need for their work. All services available in this Marketplace are provided by the EGI Federation and partner institutions.

The complete workflow used to describe how users can navigate the EGI Marketplace and submit a new service order eligible for the EGI Applications on Demand (AoD) service, and operators can manage these orders is described in Figure 1:

From the top-menu, the Applicant selects the service category: “Applications” to be automatically redirected to the Applications service page as shown in Figure 3:
