This page provides an overview of which NGIs and Resource Centres (or federated resource centres) expressed interest in being a resource provider through the grid services of the EGI federated cloud in the future to support new user communities.
Resource Centre representatives are requested to provide below information about the available capacity, the business model and local policies that need to be met to make these resources available to new user communities, and the international collaborations already supported.
This information will be used to define the available capacity when approaching international collaborations and the conditions to make it available.
Resource Centres that will become part of the [[Fedcloud-tf:Main |EGI Federated Cloud] will become storage and/or compute cloud providers to satisfy a number of use cases (IaaS, PaaS and SaaS). Many Proof of Concepts have been successfully demonstrated on the EGI Federated Cloud which is based on the federation of storage and compute resources through standard interfaces (OCCI and CDMI). The EGI Federated Cloud will be part of the hybrid cloud of Helix Nebula.
NGI | Resource Centre Name | Contact | Planned resources by April 2014
Please specify resources that the RC will provide for each category (Grid storage, grid computing, cloud storage, cloud computing) |
Planned resources by December 2014
Please specify resources that the RC will provide for each category (Grid storage, grid computing, cloud storage, cloud computing) |
Resource allocation policies and business models
Provide information about the local policies for gaining access to the resources and the foreseen model (free, pay per use, etc.) |

The access to cloud resources is the same for researchers from some University or research groups but the companies have to pay depending on the resources they need. | We provide technical support for both, users and system administrators from
other research institutes. One of this support is to fusion VO within EGI. |
