The DESY Research Infrastructure, historically supports a large variety of sciences, like High Energy and Astro particle Physics, Dark matter research, Physics with Photons and Structural Biology. Most of those domains generate large amounts of precious data, handled according to domain specific policies and taking into account embargo periods and license restrictions. However, a significant...
For over two years the Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) has been actively operating a national cloud platform designed to streamline access to geographically distributed computing and storage resources. This initiative includes a catalog of high-level services that can be instantiated on demand through a web portal. Service descriptions are specified using TOSCA templates,...
DIRAC has been a cornerstone in providing comprehensive solutions for user communities requiring access to distributed resources. Originally initiated by the LHCb collaboration at CERN in 2000, DIRAC underwent significant changes over the years. In 2008, a major refactoring resulted in the creation of the experiment-agnostic "core" DIRAC, allowing custom extensions such as...
Recent advances in X-ray beamline technologies, including the advent of very high brilliance beamlines at next generation synchrotron sources and advanced detector instrumentation, have led to an exponential increase in the speed of data collection. As a result, there is a growing need for a data analysis platform that can refine and optimise data collection strategies on-line and effectively...
