communities in various domains. Services based on the DIRAC software are offered by several
grid infrastructure projects such as France-Grilles or GridPP/UK. Since 2014, the DIRAC services
have also been provided for the EGI users. During the webinar, an overview of the DIRAC framework
will be presented together with a number of services offered to the users by EGI: how to manage
user jobs in the EGI infrastructure, how to connect custom computing and storage resources,
how to manage user data as well as automate regular tasks. Extending DIRAC with community
custom services will also be discussed.

<i>"CernVM-FS for Containers" (October 2020)</i>
<br/><br/>
Agenda, slides and recording: https://indico.egi.eu/event/5251/
<br/><br/>
<b>About</b>: Delivering complex software stacks across a worldwide distributed system
is a challenge in high-throughput scientific computing. The global-scale virtual file
system CernVM-FS distributes more than a billion software binaries to hundreds of thousands
of machines around the world.
<br/><br/>
In this webinar, we will present the latest developments with regard to CernVM-FS container
integration. Containers and CernVM-FS team up nicely: containers provide the isolation
capabilities that decouple the application stack from the underlying platform and CernVM-FS
provides efficient distribution means for the containerized software binaries. Containers are
an enabling technology to harness opportunistic resources and HPC facilities. CernVM-FS enables
the use of such resources at scale. In this webinar, we will show how existing repositories can
be used with several popular container runtimes, such as docker, podman, singularity, and kubernetes.

We will also show how operating system containers themselves can be efficiently distributed through
CernVM-FS. Lastly, we will highlight an upcoming new way of publishing content from within a container.
This makes it easy to set up, build and test and deploy-to-cvmfs pipelines on kubernetes.

<i>"The EGI Datahub to federate distributed data sets for data-intensive applications in the cloud" (June 2020)</i>
<br/><br/>
Agenda, slides and recording: https://indico.egi.eu/event/5089/
<br/><br/>
<b>About</b>: The EGI DataHub allows users to make their data available using different
levels of access: from completely unrestricted open access to open data to authenticated
access to closed data sets. This is possible as a result of the seamless integration with
the EGI AAI service. The data hosted on the EGI DataHub can be readily accessible by cloud
Virtual Machines (VMs) or running grid jobs thanks to full integration with EGI Federated
Cloud and High-Throughput compute resources. The use of protocols such as POSIX and web
services guarantees easy and scalable access to data from cloud and HTC applications. This
ensures maximum compatibility with existing applications and minimum hassle for developers
and users alike. The EGI DataHub is built on top of the EGI Open Data Platform using Onedata
technology to connect a wide range of existing storage services, regardless of their underlying
technology (e.g. Lustre, Amazon S3, Ceph, NFS, or dCache).
<br/><br/>
During this webinar the QoS and hybrid cloud data processing scenarios for distributed EOSC
environments based on EGI DataHub and Onedata solutions will be introduced.

<i>"The EGI AAI Check-In service for scientific communities" (May 2020)</i>
<br/><br/>
Agenda, slides and recording: https://indico.egi.eu/event/5088/
<br/><br/>
<b>About</b>: The EGI Check-in service (also called EGI AAI proxy) enables access to
EGI services and resources using federated authentication mechanisms. Specifically,
the proxy service is operated as a central hub between federated Identity Providers
(IdPs) residing ‘outside’ of the EGI ecosystem, and Service Providers (SPs) that are
part of EGI. The main advantage of this design principle is that all entities need to
establish and maintain technical and trust relation only to a single entity,
the EGI AAI proxy, instead of managing many-to-many relationships. In this context,
the proxy acts as a Service Provider towards the Identity Providers and as an Identity
Provider towards the Service Providers.
<br/><br/>
Through the EGI AAI proxy, users are able to authenticate with the credentials
provided by the IdP of their Home Organisation (e.g. via eduGAIN), as well as using
social identity providers, or other selected external identity providers (support for
eGOV IDs is also foreseen). To achieve this, the EGI AAI has built-in support for SAML,
OpenID Connect and OAuth2 providers and already enables user logins through Facebook,
Google, LinkedIn, and ORCID. In addition to serving as an authentication proxy, the
EGI AAI provides a central Discovery Service (Where Are You From – WAYF) for users to
select their preferred IdP.
<br/><br/>
The EGI AAI proxy is also responsible for aggregating user attributes originating
from various authoritative sources (IdPs and attribute provider services) and
delivering them to the connected EGI service providers in a harmonised and
transparent way. Service Providers can use the received attributes for authorisation
purposes, i.e. determining the resources the user has access to.
<br/><br/>
During this webinar we will give an overview about the service and provide
guidelines to support the resource providers’ and communities' needs for federated
access through the EGI AAI Check-In service. The webinar will also cover more advanced
workflows for addressing non-web-based access use cases (e.g. command line and API).

<i>"The EGI Notebooks service: Support for analytics and big data visualisation in the cloud" (May 2020)</i>
<br/><br/>
Agenda, slides and recording: https://indico.egi.eu/event/5087/
<br/><br/>
<b>About</b>: The EGI Notebooks service is an environment based on Jupyter and the
EGI cloud service that offers a browser-based, scalable tool for interactive data analysis.
The notebooks environment provides users with notebooks where they can combine text,
mathematics, computations and rich media output. The service, in production since late 2019,
is offered in two options: (i) Notebooks for researchers: EGI offers a basic instance of the
Notebooks as an open service. Any researcher can access this automatically to write and play
notebooks on limited capacity cloud servers. (ii) Notebooks for communities: EGI offers customised
Notebooks service to scientific communities. Such customised instances can be hosted on special
hardware (for example with fat nodes and GPUs), can offer special libraries, data import/export
and user authentication systems.
<br/><br/>
During the webinar Enol will go through the main features of the EGI Notebooks service and
he will explain how to use it with Binder and other open-source solutions to implement Open Science.

<i>"Introduction of the EGI Cloud Compute service" (April 2020)</i>
<br/><br/>
Agenda, slides and recording: https://indico.egi.eu/event/5085/
<br/><br/>
<b>About</b>: The EGI Federated Cloud is a IaaS-type cloud, made of academic private
clouds and virtualized resources and built around open standards. Its development is
driven by requirements of the scientific community. The result is a new type of research
e-infrastructure, based on the mature federated operations services that make EGI a reliable
resource for science.
<br/><br/>
When using EGI Federated Cloud resources, researchers and research communities can
count on: a.) Total control over deployed applications, b.) Elastic resource consumption
based on real need, c.) Immediately processed workloads – no more waiting time,
d.) An extended e-Infrastructure across resource providers in Europe, and
e.) Service performance scaled with elastic resource consumption.
<br/><br/>
In this webinar an overview of the EGI Federated Cloud and how this scalable computing
platform can be used for data and/or compute driven research and/or support the development
of advanced services for research and science will be provided by Enol Fernandez. The webinar
will be relevant for researchers, and IT-service providers who support research and education.
