Sent to both the cloud and storage lists so apologies to all those get
two copies of this but I know that there is not a complete overlap
between them.
I am trying to put together an agenda for the next first day of the next
GridPP meeting which is themed on clouds and I am going to include
distributed storage in that definition (which I know is strictly
agnostic as to whether it is Grids or Clouds or anything else).
I should have got this agenda to Dave B. last week and the reason that I
haven't is largely because I am finding non-trivial to put together a
coherent agenda so I thought that would circulate my rough thoughts to
these lists and then what reactions and thoughts come back. So the list
of items things I was thinking about (with possibles names) are:
- The GridPP test Cloud (Adam Huffman)
- Other cloud resources within GridPP (Ian Collier)
- Security aspects of cloud resources (John Green)
- Cloud Scheduling - GlideinWMS and Cloud Scheduler (this may be too
embryonic)
- Distributed storage - xroot and webdav - performance and logistics etc
(Jens and Wahid)
- Atlas Clouds (Dr Love)
- LHCb Clouds (Raja/Pete)
- CMS Clouds (Andrew)
- Relationships with other cloud projects (Davids C. and W.)
What do people think?
Best,
david
