7. • Research communities
- Discover services through a
secure online catalogue with a
central access point.
- Access services via harmonised
access policies and Service Level
Agreements. Depending on the
customer’s needs, access will be
provided through a centrally
managed credit-based allocation
system and/or through long-term
resource allocation.
- Leverage a large portfolio of
generic and thematic services via
standard interfaces
- Provide requirements, co-design,
testing
• Research Infrastructures -
Providers
- Contribute to EOSC with services
based on a harmonised corpus of
access, security and provisioning
policies.
- Integrate and Federate services by
relying on harmonised processes and
tools for service integration and
management.
- Scale-up in-house capacity by
procuring services via a centrally run
procurement and purchase
framework.
- Reach out to user communities and
support
- Collaborate with other providers
