The ENES Data Space node aims to offer core services and capabilities relevant to the climate research community. This includes data (input datasets and research products), resources (storage and compute), infrastructural components for deployment and orchestration of services, and software solutions supporting researchers and institution departments in realistic scenarios. In this way, scientists can run AI/ML-based applications and perform big data processing, interactive analytics and visualisation of climate data, without having to download datasets, install software and prepare the environment.
The environment will also provide provenance capabilities, thus allowing scientists from different domains (mainly climate) to publish and/or manage provenance documents, so that they can share and explore data lineage information related to their scientific workflows.
The ENES Data Space node will integrate AAI & Identity management solutions to provide access to the services via AAI proxy (AuthN via IdPs, AuthZ via VOs). It will also come with accounting and monitoring capabilities for tracking the usage of resources and monitoring the overall service performance (availability, reliability). The node will include relevant services and tools in terms of data access and cataloguing utilities to expose the thematic data catalogue and make data collections searchable and accessible at the federation level.
