Project contribution to “the Hub”
16
The Hub
• A European-level contact point for researchers and innovators to discover,
access, use and reuse a broad spectrum of resources for advanced data-
driven research.
- Through the virtual access mechanism, more scientific communities and users have
access to services supporting their scientific discovery and collaboration across
disciplinary and geographical boundaries.
• Open to service providers and end-users
- The project will support the integration new thematic services and scientific products
from research communities and disciplines.
16 April 2018
• Publish services and products
• Define Hub policies and comply to these (general & community-specific) →
community labels
• e.g. FAIR best practices, access and usage policies, interoperability and
standards
• Define/Adopt standard-compliant general service management processes
with other providers
• Exploit tools and for service management
• Accounting, monitoring, federated AAI
• Incident management, order management, SLA management, IT security
management …
Providers
• Use institutional credentials for access
• Discover, compare
• Order, get access and support
• Request additional services and products
End-users
17
Value proposition
16 April 2018
• Manage alignment of services to defined policies and standards
• Align services and products metadata to community guidelines (eInfraCentral,
OpenAIRE-Advance)
• Define/maintain/review service level agreements
• Conduct service audits and quality assurance reviews
• Manage end-to-end service level management performance retaining overall
accountability
• Provide the tools for aggregating demand and supply, make services and research
artifacts discoverable and accessible at European level etc.
• Coordinate IT security operations
• Support users with incident management
