#REDIRECT [[Applications_on_Demand_Service_-_Information_pages]]
EGI now offers an easy-to-use platform for researchers to access compute, storage and application services.
 
 
'''This page provides information about the '[http://access.egi.eu EGI Science Applications on-demand]' infrastructure, hereafter referred to as the <u>Infrastructure</u>.'''
 
'''The Science Applications on-demand infrastructure aims to address the requirements of a large number of researchers, National Users Support Teams and small laboratories who are scattered across Europe which do not have access to dedicated computational resources, storage and community specific Virtual Research Environments to manage and analyse large amount of data. This infrastructure, makes available generic storage and compute services through a set of high-level, user friendly graphical environments.'''
 
<br> '''What does this Infrastructure offer ?'''
 
The Infrastructure integrates the following types of resources and services:
 
* High-throughput computing sites for running compute/data-intensive jobs
* Cloud sites for compute/data intensive jobs and/or for hosting scientific services
* Storage resources for storing job input and output data, and for setting up data catalogues for data reuse
* Science gateways that operate as graphical web environments for designing and executing scientific applications in the platform
* ‘Ready to use’ scientific applications that are already integrated with the underlying cloud and/or HTC services, and are offered ‘as services’ through the science gateways
* Consultancy, support and training for users
 
 
'''Who can access the Infrastructure ?'''
 
The Infrastructure is open for any researcher who needs a simple and user-friendly access to compute, storage and applications services in order to carry out data/compute intensive science and innovation. You need to be affiliated with, or at least have a partner (for example a referee), at a European research institution to qualify for access. The Infrastructure support team, through their national network, validates user requests.
