Software Managers requiring access to infrastructure to test out and validate their new products in the cloud, mobile, wireless, and wired network space will be interested to hear about the various testbeds and their unique capabilities. Come and hear about the opportunities: • Testing new software at scale • Open Access (= Free access) - up to hundreds of servers to conduct scaling experiments • Some funding available to support tests • Example software test process: o write script to deploy 50 servers o write script to simulate events from 1 million users. o deploy software under test o measure key performance indicators over 24 hour period o upgrade and reiterate

Open Access Testbed Facilities Available to Software Companies in Europe
- 1. Helping SMEs connect to the Future Internet Presentation by Donal Morris FUSION Webinar November 20th 14.00 GMT
- 2. Agenda • Introduction to FIRE • Some of the testbeds • Case Study • Questions – Future Internet Testing needs & requirements
- 3. Future Internet • What is the future Internet? • Means lots of different things – Sensors, smart cities, telemedicine, priority traffic and quality, transport, eHealth, entertainment, green………..
- 5. FIRE • FIRE is: • Future Internet Research & Experimentation • A range of projects with testbeds and experiments funded by the European Commission
- 8. SME Engagements • The EU wishes to see more SMEs involved in the projects • Rich offer of experimental facilities – (more then 100) • Current main use by academic community
- 9. The value proposition is • FIRE Testbeds available to help test and validate new products/services • Useful for testing and reducing risk for new technology. • Especially useful for scale testing. • Testbeds available for free and some times with EU funding – Typically €25k to €75k for small experiments – & >€1m for larger collaborative experiments

Editor's Notes
- Fed4FIRE: note that due to policies, not *all* of it is available to anyone for free, but it will be free to test/evaluate by way of an example experiment
- The bottomline is that testbeds in the federation are easy to use (in this case, an example of a wired test): people just have to drag and drop “servers” and connections. All complexity is hidden behind an easy to understand interface (i.c. jfed.iminds.be)
- CREW is … bringing together test facilities for supporting research on spectrum sensing, cognitive radio & cognitive networking augment existing facilities with novel cognitive components bringing together expertise on experimentation facilitating access to heterogeneous test facilities researching & offering better methodologies for experimentation (repeatability, reproducibility, comparability) … in view of validating advanced cognitive solutions (new concepts & algorithms) using CREW facilities and CREW methodologies
