D-Grid
Project Goal: The goal of this project is to expand the existing D-Grid infrastructure with an interface for commercial compute Clouds.
Solution Description: The new interface, which is provided by fluid Operations’ eCloudManager, will enable D-Grid to expand its customer base to include SMEs, thereby achieving an economically sustainable Grid. To reach the project goal, D-Grid will rely on the fluid Operations eCloudManager to provide a Self-Service component which will allow customers to deploy their applications, manage their deployments and monitor their Grid usage. Similarly, D-Grid operators can use the eCloudManager to manage resource provisioning, data center operations, and billing and accounting. |

CollabCloud
Project Goal: CollabCloud aims at a paradigm shift for data provisioning, allowing for the dynamic allocation of decentralized and semantically heterogeneous structured data for search and analysis of data in collaborative settings.

|
Solution Description: CollabCloud employs technologies from Semantic Computing and Cloud Computing. Cloud computing encompasses the trend to move applications and services from local servers to a preconfigured, web-based infrastructure (the Cloud). Services are offered through the network and provide a scalable, robust infrastructure on a “Pay as you Go” basis, with the possibility to dynamically adjust the amount of related resources.

Hasso-Plattner-Institut (HPI)
fluidOps and the Hasso-Plattner-Institut (HPI), the University Center of Excellence in IT Systems Engineering located in Potsdam, are collaborating on two projects. The GovWILD project is aims at developing a Web-based application that makes public government data transparent and freely available. Read more about the GovWILD-Project. In addition to the GovWILD project, HPI and fluidOps are also collaborating on a project aiming at providing on-demand access to Open Government Data.
