Advanced Computing for a Data-Driven Future

In the area of data intensive computing, the EGI Foundation connects research communities with the extensive services of the EGI Federation, providing essential support, and catalysing innovation and collaborative research efforts. The Foundation achieves this by providing a critical federation and management platform that allows service providers to harmonise their interfaces and seamlessly connect to a common hub, forming a federated layer that simplifies access to their services, resources and expertise.

As a result, the EGI Federation delivers a scalable digital research infrastructure (e-infrastructure), empowering tens of thousands of researchers across diverse scientific disciplines. Through the EGI Federation, researchers gain access to advanced computing and data analytics capabilities, including large-scale data analysis, while benefiting from the collaborative efforts of hundreds of service providers from both public and private sectors, consolidating resources from Europe and beyond. Overall, the EGI Federation offers a range of cutting-edge services, encompassing distributed high throughput and cloud computing, efficient storage and data management capabilities, co-development of new solutions, expert support, and comprehensive training opportunities. This vibrant ecosystem propels collaboration, scientific progress and innovation.

The EGI Foundation coordinates the EGI infrastructure and was established in Amsterdam in 2010 as a not-for-profit organisation.
