EuropeanCloudInitiative [COM(2016)178of19/4/2016]

■ EuropeanOpenScienceCloud(EOSC)– Integrationandconsolidationofe-infrastructures– Federationofexistingresearchinfrastructuresandscientificclouds– Developmentofcloud-basedservicesforOpenScience– ConnectionofESFRIstotheEOSC

■ EuropeanDataInfrastructure(EDI)– Developmentanddeploymentoflarge-scaleEuropeanHPC,dataand

networkinfrastructures

■ Wideningaccess– SMEs,Industryatlarge,Government

"BuildingaEuropeanDataEconomy"[COMinJan2017]

■ Acquisition (in2020-2021)of2operationalpre-exascaleand(in2022-2023)twofullexascalemachines(ofwhichonebasedonEuropeantechnology)
