Speakers
Description
A DRE (Digital Research Environment) provides the European researcher with a dynamic catalogue of accessible digital services within an intuitive portal or workspace. The GÉANT community DRE platform (based on the SURF Research Cloud) is both functional and configurable, allowing sophisticated researcher identification and project affiliation, and controlled consumption of general and bespoke services against a wallet (project budget). The DRE is at the core of the GÉANT led EOSC4ALL project which kicks off after TNC26.
Resource and artifact sharing is made possible by the researcher’s ability to invite collaborators into their workspace. Services may be provided by the NREN, a local institute, a national or European research-infrastructure (RI), a commercial cloud services supplier, or any other provider of services to the broader research community.
This is clearly demonstrated by a series of NREN PoCs supported by the GÉANT Innovation Fund in 2025. Listen to their story!
What will the TNC audience take away from your talk?
The talk will clearly demonstrate the NRENs' role in research service distribution and the functional breadth of the SRC/DRE. Multi-tenancy and centralised opt-in community S/PaaS platforms will be explained in detail. NRENs interested in becoming nodes of the EOSC and those participant in the EOSC4ALL project will engage with the identity-based platform at its core.
