ScipionCloud development has been possible thanks to European Horizon 2020, the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme, which has financed the following projects:
EOSC-Synergy
“Expanding the capacity and capabilities of EOSC by leveraging the experience, effort and resources of national publicly-funded digital infrastructures”.
We work on Work Package 4 developing one of the thematic services that will be included in the EOSC portal. The ScipionCloud service will allow Instruct users to deploy a dynamic cluster in the cloud to keep processing the data acquired at the facility.
EOSC-Life
“Building a digital space for the life sciences”.
We took part in Work Package 3 developing one of the Science demonstrators: “Cryo Electron Microscopy Workflows and Automated Data Deposition”.
As a continuation we applied to Work Package 1 Open Call with project for CryoEM data that aims to extend the work done in previous demonstrator in two different aspects: First, by using standard workflow technologies such as Ontologies, Common Workflow Language and RO-Crate packing and second, working on the integration of EGI Datahub (OneData) service to achieve CryoEM data cloudification. This project is a collaboration with CEITEC and Masaryk University from Brno.
MoBrain
“A Competence Center to Serve Translational Research from Molecule to Brain”.*
We were involved on Task 2: Cryo-EM in the cloud: bringing clouds to the data.
Information about the project
WestLife
“Bring the world of complex data analysis in Structural Biology to a simple Web browser-based Virtual Research Environment”.
The group was responsible for the Integration of existing Cryo-EM web services, Scipion Web Tools, on the VRE.
Instruct Research and Development pilot project
Pilot EM cloud Computing was a project to deploy and test Scipion software on AWS EC2 platform and create a public Scipion AMI that could be used by EM users to easily instantiate its own Scipion Virtual Machine on AWS EC2 cloud.
The aim was to have a Scipion AMI that could be used as a stand-alone or as a elastic cluster.
