What is the VL-e Proof of Concept EnvironmentThe Proof-of-Concept Environment (PoC) is the shared, common environment for e-Science of the Virtual Laboratory for e-Science. In the PoC, the different tools and services used by and provided by the project are available, and bound together in a service oriented approach. The PoC covers three distinct areas:
The PoC is managed by the VL-e Integration Team (VLeIT). Its mandate defines the composition of the team and the desired PoC architecture.
InfrastructureThe PoC Central Facilities consist of a wide variety of resources and access points, including large compute clusters, and storage space in near-line tape storage, all accessible via grid and data management tools. Also contained in the PoC are various other application services like databases, and of course local user interface systems.
Training and disseminationRegular tutorials and workshops are organised to spread knowledge on the infrastructure and to make developers and users acquainted with new technological developments.
