The CernVM-FS is firmly established as a method of software and condition data distribution for the LHC experiments at WLCG sites. Use of CernVM-FS outside WLCG has been growing steadily and an increasing number of Virtual Organizations (VOs), both within the High Energy Physics (HEP) and in other communities (i.e. Space, Natural and Life Sciences), have identified this technology as a more...

In order to check health, activities, or resource usage of IT service, monitoring is indispensable. A combination of Kibana and ElasticSearch is used for monitoring in many places such as KEK, CC-IN2P3, CERN, and also non-HEP communities. Kibana provides a web interface for rich visualization and ElasticSearch is a scalable distributed search engine. However, these tools do not support...

For over a decade, X509 Proxy Certificates are used in High Energy Physics (HEP) to authenticate users and guarantee their membership in
Virtual Organizations, on which subsequent authorization, e.g. for
data access, is based upon. Although the established infrastructure
worked well and provided sufficient security, the implementation of
procedures and the underlying software is often...

With the growth of large-scale distributed computing infrastructures,
a system that enables researchers -- not only international
collaborative research projects but also small research groups -- to
use high performance computing resources in such infrastructures is
established. For the computing resource use system which invites
researchers in the world to submit the research proposal,...
