Motive

• Cloud cloud cloud — data explosion• Sharing sharing sharing — connectivity explosion• Go go go — study + work + play + collaborate +

organize + share + et cetera

• Collaboration is key to you and your team’s success!

New core business

• Modern universities are developing towards loose conglomerates of (inter)discipline expertise

• Collaboration is therefore a core business• Scientific collaboration involves groups of people

in multiple institutions, disciplines and countries• Collaboration is about using shared services and

resources

Virtual Collaboration* = People + Groups + Resources + Services + Policies + Funding + ...

*a.k.a. Virtual Organization


Distributed landscape

• Modern science combines resources from multiple sources across multiple (administrative) domains

‣ The core resources are within one virtual collaboration domain, but within multiple institutions, and

‣ the generic collaboration services can be foundin 'the cloud'

Virtual Collaborations and Partnerships

6

• Virtual Research Team- Focussed on doing research- Small scale - Temporary and elastic- Little ICT awareness- Users

• “Virtual” Infrastructure Provider- Focussed on providing infrastructure for specific discipline- Well-organized with grands and budgets- Longer term- Better ICT awareness- Not virtual (ESFRI projects, CLARIN, Lifewatch, LOFAR,

NBIC)

SURFconext

SURFconext allows you to create your own collaboration environment that organizes your applications, services and resources

• Provides the glue and lubrication middleware to make campus, cloud based services and resources usable for collaboration for both inter campus and virtual collaboration scenarios

• O!er the platform as a service for smaller & ad-hoc team collaboration

• O!er the platform software for large, virtual collaboration-type collaboration to run-you-own
