Strategic Plan
Establish multi-tenant, multi-provider cloud infrastructure
Identify and adopt policies for trust, security and privacy
Create governance structure
Define funding schemes
To support the computing capacity needs for the ATLAS
experiment
Setting up a new service to simplify analysis of large genomes, for a
deeper insight into evolution and biodiversity
To create an Earth Observation
platform, focusing on earthquake and
volcano research
To improve the speed and quality of research for finding
surrogate biomarkers based on brain
images

The Hybrid Cloud ModelBrings together• research organisations,• data providers,• publicly funded e-
infrastructures,• commercial cloud service
providers
In a hybrid cloud with procurement and governance approaches suitable for the dynamic cloud market In-house
