Overall Objectives

The Helix Nebula project is a preliminary step towards a European cloud- based scientific e-infrastructure

  • 1. A platform capable of development through PPP into a scalable science cloud
  • 2. A flexible governance structure capable of growing alongside the infrastructure itself
  • 3. Representations of functional and non‐functional requirements including policies for trust,

security and privacy

  • 4. Agreements regarding inter‐operability with other, existing, e‐infrastructures
  • 5. Three flagships based at CERN, EMBL and ESA (represented by CNR), selected as ‘stretch’

targets highlighting extreme cases of the requirements of the ERA

  • 6. Sustainable business models adhering to and supporting European‐level policies
  • 7. A roadmap and development plan for addressing issues on the road to 2020

Management Tasks

The pre-financing was distributed in two installments to avoid overspending of funds without achievement of tasks Successful launch of a dry-run of the financial reporting process covering the first 7 months of the project in order to:

identify any missing information and issues that could arise Monitor the resource consumption during the first half of the period

Review of progress and plans at the General Assemblies Tools provided (at no cost to the project)

The open repository for all Helix Nebula documents on the CERN Doc. System (CDS) The contents of the communication tools (website, Facebook, Twitter) approved by Mgmt Team. Website hosted by CloudSigma The AlfrescoShare Entreprise collaboration tool to share documents within the inititiative/project provided by EMBL Indico tool for meeting organisation provided by CERN The 21 email lists (hosted EGI.eu and CERN)

SLIDE 22

Resources and Funding

The Helix Nebula pilot phase rests on financial support from:

Co-funding by the EC focused on:

Coordinating beneficiaries’ efforts and animating the initiative Policy aspects, Communication and Outreach

Demand-side beneficiaries (CERN, CNR, EMBL)

Contribution to the cost of cloud resources consumed Manpower for porting flagships to the infrastructure (WP5, not reported in cost claims)

Supply-side beneficiaries (Atos, CloudSigma, CSA, EGI.eu Logica, SAP, T-Systems)

Development of services and Blue Boxes Full cost of the operation of the services

Significant contribution from members of the HN initiative (not beneficiaries of the project):

ESA and CNES: manpower for flagship deployment + cost of services consumed SMEs: SixSq, Terradue, TheServerLabs involved in TechArch and ServArch Development of services and connection to Blue Boxes by suppliers (+Interoute, Univ Madrid/OpenNebula) Dante & NRENs: Effort to connect supplier data centres to GEANT

Provisional Financial Status

Based on Beneficiaries’ Cost Claims for Period 1 Total Costs: 1,038,934 EUR

63 % of total budgeted costs

Total Requested Contribution: 801,548 EUR

74% of budgeted requested contribution Direct personnel costs are 72 % of total costs Remaining costs are travel, minor subcontracting and

Spent 50% of the WP5 WP3 effort needed was below expectation WP2 cost will be used in P2 Work completed using effort funded via internal sources Project funded effort will be concentrated on WP5 in P2

No impact on DoW. All beneficiaries are contributing to the project

WP2 cost will be consumed in P2 Work of a trainee not charged to the EC project Task of defining the cloud platform and provisioning required more work than originally foreseen. Has required more highly-skilled and experienced staff than we expected

Summary

The Helix Nebula has fully completed its first year of work All beneficiaries are active and have justified their costs

The unspent EC resources will be consumed during the 2nd period (details in final presentation)

Suitable structures have been put in place to manage the project within the context of the larger Helix Nebula initiative

The members of the larger Helix Nebula initiative have contributed significant resources to achieving the objectives
