Abstract:

This white paper from the EGI-InSPIRE project gives detailed information about the European Grid Infrastructure, outlining the human, technical and infrastructure services that has been established and supported across Europe through the project. It provides a condensed overview of the technical activity supported by the EGI-InSPIRE that could be found in the Description of Work, but in a form that can be more easily referenced. Many of the topics briefly addressed in this paper are expanded on in other work within the project and these are referenced where appropriate. The detailed plans relating to longer-term issues and future challenges for the infrastructure in the areas of sustainability, virtualisation and expanding the user community are reviewed, but a detailed analysis of these topics are covered in work that goes on throughout the early part of the project but an overview of these issues is provided here.
Therefore, this paper provides a reference for individuals writing their own paper on EGI-InSPIRE and provides material that can be used within the project and its collaborators in other publications.
New users of the infrastructure should consult http://www.egi.eu to find information on how to get started in EGI.
