9 ©2006 University of Southampton IT Innovation Centre and other members of the SIMDAT consortium GRIA Overview (http://www.gria.org) Open source Grid middleware aimed at supporting B2B collaboration based on proven e-Commerce principles V4.3.0 has easy-to-use yet powerful functionality –business-to-business accounting and QoS services –distributed file transfer, storage and processing –OGSA-DAI database services –inter-domain distributed workflow using Taverna V5.0 to be released May 2006 Aligned with key Grid/web service standards and specifications –WSRF Profile, WS-N, WS-Federation, WS-I Basic Profile and WS-I Basic Security Profile

10 ©2006 University of Southampton IT Innovation Centre and other members of the SIMDAT consortium GRIA: Supporting the needs of business Develop Grid infrastructure to support cost effective dynamic business collaborations Some important business drivers that we need to support –minimal authorisation and administration –explicit trust decision points and value exchange –unite customers and suppliers based on SLAs rather than a community-based resource provision –higher-levels of management grounded in business objectives –firewall and network friendly –compliance with industrial operational security policies (ISO/IEC 17799:2005)

11 ©2006 University of Southampton IT Innovation Centre and other members of the SIMDAT consortium SIMDATs Industrial Grid Profile Whitepaper aimed at industrial Grid users from SIMDAT Grid technologists (Intel, NEC and IT Innovation) Motivated by business needs –Understand issues with key Grid-related specifications when applied to industrial applications security, operational, performance requirements –Recommend how the specifications can be safely adopted –Publish industrial Grid profiles to wider community –Engage with appropriate initiatives to influence future direction of specifications Currently under internal review, looking to publish Q3 2006 following proof of concept deployments

12 ©2006 University of Southampton IT Innovation Centre and other members of the SIMDAT consortium Some Key Specifications and Standards WS-Addressing (WS-A) –describes the encapsulation and use of a (possibly contextualised) Web Service address via End Point References (EPR) Web Service Resource Framework (WSRF) –collection of specifications, which describes a particular use of WS-Addressing to access resources via contextualised Web Services WS-Notification (WSN) –collection of specifications, which builds further on WSRF to define patterns for transmitting notifications between Web Services OGSA WSRF profile –defines normative functionality expected of an OGSA-compliant Grid, building on WSRF and WSN. Others under analysis include WSDM, WS-Agreement, WS-Trust, WS-Federation, JSDL, etc
