Handbook on EOSC infrastructure integration

How to make your infrastructure EOSC-aware

Description

The handbook for integration of services with EOSC is a document for quick reference for different types of EOSC users, with relevant information about technical management of infrastructures (integration, security procedures), usage (VO creation, usability) and the accounting of the services.

The Handbook provides a blueprint for scalable and efficient Cloud service integration, which is based on the principles of separation of concerns, clearly defined roles and clear communication between them. The topics covered in the Handbook include open-source cloud infrastructure support, custom extensions and tools to bridge gaps. Different entry levels for different users’ knowledge levels are supported via IM / IM-Dashboard, OpenStack Dashboard, fedcloudclient. Finally, the handbook describes targeted extensions and tools to address general use-case needs, specific monitoring and accounting.
