NREN service matrix update Jessica Willis, GEANT TF-MSP meeting 27 th November 2014

2 Connect | communicate | Collaborate Reminder: Why a service matrix? Background Many sources of information on NRENs’ services : TERENA Compendium; potentially all NRENs globally NRENs’ own websites: local language, not all services displayed e.g. planned/developing services Nordic NREN service matrix Objective Create a single view of service portfolios across GÉANT NRENs, to support: Sharing of knowledge and expertise Identification of trends and gaps Enabler for brokering of intra-NREN services(?)

7 Connect | communicate | Collaborate Discussion points…  Does the (version 2) solution meet your needs?  Phase one: restricted access (eduGAIN), phase two: public access. What does this mean for approval to publish?  Keeping information up to date (via Compendium survey)  More feedback welcome – categories/ services (surely) not perfect
