This pilot activity aims to identify and enhance an existing AAI solutions to be adopted by LifeWatch ERIC as IdP, integrating already existing institutional or social identities in a federated way. This
Pilot goals
Some questions to answer:
What are the goals of this pilot?
Why is it in AARC project?
How this pilot will improve AARC community?
Why should I use this pilot instead of other solutions?
This IdP solution will be used for the following purposes:
- To give access to restricted LW services. The services may be restricted because of processing power or storage demands.
- To protect user data and scripts that are stored on the infrastructure (unix home folders etc)
- To give access to data not yet in the public domain. (data in databases , project moratorium period )
- To distinguish between users uploading data to the system (RvLab , eLab, data explorer)
- To give access to openstack configuration interface and computing resources at infrastructure layer.
- To manage roles/groups and authorize them to access specific services

- .
Currently, the different user apps manage their own users. The institutional credentials could be federated in the Identity Provider. Also, it should manage the following roles/users:
- IT administrator who have access at infrastructural level.
- Developers/Solver who have access to computing/storage resources to develop new Vlabs/VREs.
- LifeWatch ERIC research users
- Citizen Science (to have access to concrete applications)
The architecture suggested by AARC based on the blueprint is a promising approach to be adapted to the European framework, in particular for the European Open Science Cloud.
