In this video from the 2014 ISC Cloud Conference, David Wallom from the University of Oxford presents: Using a Widely Distributed Federated Cloud System to Support Multiple Disparate User Communities.

The EGI federated cloud, which has been in development for the past 3 years has now entered production. Building on the tried and trusted EGI core services we have added federated IaS compute and storage services, utilising open standards to support more than 10 pilot communities. We will discuss the model of federation, and the different application design models that the users use and why cloud will be a success when compared with grid due to this inherent flexibility.”
