Minutes

Glenna SG 15-14. Approval of agenda and minutes from last meeting

(5 mins)


Decision:

Glenna SG 15-15. Project status report

(20 mins)

Background: Status review (.ppt) by PM. The project has been on hiatus during the summer, but items worth mentioning are: the use cases have been approved, access to deic.data.dk, progress in WP3, WP4 and WP5


Discussion:

Glenna SG 15-16. Glenna PM allocations

(50 mins) pdf

Background: there was not time to discuss PM allocations in the last meeting and since the new Cloud Storage (WP1) has been introduced and accepted into the project we need a discussion on the resourcing and how to allocate PM:s.

One challenge will be that PM:s in most countries have already been allocated which may result in a smaller effort on part of the cloud WP than the project would hope for.


Discussion: The Steering group is invited to discuss the PM allocations and decide on a new distribution.

Decision:

Glenna SG 15-17. Project strategy discussion

(70 mins)

Background: after initally having problems finding personnel the project looks set to pick up speed and with some confidence it looks like we have the "bricks in place". WP2,WP3,WP4 and WP5 are all active and there is initial enthusiasm towards the cloud storage part also in Norway Sweden and Finland. The lack of infrastructure has been a problem but now the Norwegian UH IaaS pilot has been presented and there is a large OpenStack cloud in use at Uppsala university.

In terms of federated access, the Tryggve and Glenna projects are collaborating on potential SAML based authentication and a number of accounts have been distributed to the OpenStack cloud at CSC (cPouta).

The Meteo and SaaaS use cases have been funded and are being started and will directly benefit the Glenna project

With the Glenna SG assembled at Kastrup the intention of this agenda item is to discuss where we're headed, if the initial vision still holds and where the individual countries stand in terms of national cloud infrastructures.
