Description
NRENs across the world are taking on growing responsibility for enabling secure, sovereign, and compliant cloud use for research and education. The Global Cloud Café offers an open, informal space for NRENs from all continents to share short, 10-minute updates on their roles, current challenges, and lessons learned. The session will also provide an update on the feasibility study exploring whether the OCRE cloud tenders – already serving 39 European countries and over 1,100 institutions in 29 countries making use of them – could evolve into a global model. Four of the participating NRENs will share their perspective: BCNET/Cybera, Internet2, REANNZ & RNP.
It will also include a panel discussion on the role of NRENs in the procurement and delivery of cloud services.
This is a working conversation. Join to gain a concise overview of global NREN cloud developments, understand shared pain points, and explore whether practical cross-regional collaboration is possible.
