Blue-Cloud 2026 Project VLab
Blue-Cloud 2026 evolves its pilot Blue-Cloud ecosystem into a Federated EU Ecosystem that delivers FAIR, Open data and analytical services instrumental for deepening research of oceans, seas, coastal and inland waters.
Blue-Cloud 2026 Project
Blue-Cloud 2026 further integrates and grows the recognised pilot Blue-Cloud ecosystem into EOSC, providing researchers access to multidisciplinary datasets from observations (both in-situ and earth observations) and model outputs, analytical tools/services, and computing facilities essential for key blue science use cases.
Blue-Cloud 2026 directly builds upon the Blue-Cloud project [Oct 2019-Sep 2022], and it evolves its pilot Blue-Cloud ecosystem into a Federated EU Ecosystem that delivers FAIR, Open data and analytical services instrumental for deepening research of oceans, European seas, coastal and inland waters.
It also advances and expands the Blue-Cloud core services, comprising the federated Data Discovery & Access Service (DD&AS), the Virtual Research Environment (VRE) and Virtual Labs (VLabs). Ultimately, a thematic marine EOSC for open web-based science serving the EU Blue Economy, Marine Environment and Marine Knowledge agendas, and related EU missions and destinations will be established.
