“We need third party collaboration tools (e.g. Box, WebEx) and high-end solutions to scale out peak loads and to make resources easily accessible for researchers everywhere around the world”
Roger Johnson, 38 yoLead investigator at the Dutch Bioinformatics Institute Participates in an Intn’l multicentre Bio-Imaging project
The Scientist: “Wouldn’t it be Nice if…”
Webex and Box.net for collaboration? Amazon and
Rackspace for storage and compute?
Instant access?
SSO supported?
Decent pricing?All available in one
Webstore?

How to Meet the Needs of our Users
Roger, Lead
InvestigatorBio-imaging
I wish I had an overview of available cloud
solutions
I wish I could buy and enable a “certified” product
instantly
I don’t know how we could offer something
like that
I’d like to stay in control !

“Handling”demand& supply
• The big ones are difficult to tame
• They are in control anyway
• Universities & NREN enforce
conditions (closing the ranks)
Negotiate special conditions Apply EU law Lump Sum

“Handling”demand& supply
• The small ones seeking pathways to
the R&D and EDU market
• Large heterogeneity
• Niche
Eager to “domesticate” their
solutions Need help with OE compliancy,
exposure….
