The Special Interest Group on Research Engagement Development (SIG-RED) invites all interested persons to the online infoshare about the EOSC EU Node services.
The EOSC EU Node was officially launched by the European Commission in October 2024 as the first European-level node of the emerging EOSC Federation. It relies on the contributions of European Repositories, Research Infrastructures and e-Infrastructures, scientific service providers, and several European National Research and Education Networks (NRENs), including CESNET (Czech Republic), GRNET (Greece), PCSS (Poland), Sikt (Norway), and SUNET (Sweden).
The EOSC EU Node is a collaborative environment built on FAIR principles, promoting transparency and accessibility with Open Science at its core. Currently, it comprises a robust set of six publicly available services:
File Sync and Share
Interactive Notebooks
Large File Transfer
Virtual Machines
Cloud Container Platform
Bulk Data Transfer
These services address key challenges in modern research workflows, enabling researchers to work efficiently in data-intensive environments, across disciplines and across borders. The application and infrastructure services of the EOSC EU Node have been selected to support a wide range of research domains, providing a “common baseline” for researchers in all fields.
In this webinar, participants will:
