Overview
The goal of this task is to support the service delivery in Task 1 for the benefit of the research and education community and research collaborations, in order to meet operational standards and community expectations for business-critical applications, by supporting a core set of functions that are common to all T&I services. The key objectives of this task are to define the baseline (minimum requirements and recommendations) of production operations, provide the support services, infrastructure and tools in collaboration with WP9, and cater for other common services operational and management requirements. This support includes:
...
- Continue work on establishing central monitoring platform with at least two T&I services monitored in the Y1.
- Continue work on establishing central data analytic platform with at least one T&I services using it in Y1.
- Establish necessary agreements with the infrastructure providers (VMs etc), as per services requirements. (ongoing activity, as requested by services)
- Provide support to services in defining OLA and other agreements. (ongoing activity, as requested by services )
- Support services to define the DPA agreements, in collaboration with the GEANT GDPR team.
- Collect the requirements for software development infrastructure (repositories, continuous integration, testing etc) and work with other partners to enable them for WP5 ( from WP9 (Marcin), NRENs, Commercial solutions)

| 3.2 Monitoring. Lead: Boro Jakimovski. Task not currently active | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Zabbix / links to data analytics Use of ELK | This work item will review the current status of monitoring across the services |
| Boro Jakimovski, Dick Visser, Brook Schofield, | This work item was initially intended to provide centralised monitoring for the T&I services but in the new structure for service delivery for the T&I services in GN4-3 this proved very difficult. A small pilot of Zabbix with eduTEAMS was not successful as it didn't provide the desired functionality. Work is currently focused on ELK and f-ticks for eduGAIN and is fully focused on that task. A review will take place to see if this can be extended. Dick has put in place temporary monitoring of some of the central functions at nagios.terena.org. A different approach to monitoring - creating an incubator project of interested people - has been proposed. | Work with T1 for now. | |||||||||||||||||
| 3.3 Resource Inventory. Lead: Anass Chabli. | ||||||||||||||||||||||
| Anass Chabli, Dick Visser | While we are actively exploring GLPI - there is also https://snipeitapp.com/ but also work on licence management within the PLM process which could reveal software components. I think this challenge is much broader than initially thought - but maybe we can get involved in all of these other areas of exploration. | ||||||||||||||||||||
