Coordinator: Claudio Donati

Staff involved: Michele Tonelli

The project aims to create an infrastructure for the conservation, analysis and display of omics data obtained within the RI. The infrastructure must satisfy the following requirements:

• it must have a modular structure suitable for updating/expansion;
• it must provide for an integrated traceability system capable of managing the whole lifecycle of experimental data, in line with the best standardisation practices established at European level;
• it must be capable of managing a wide spectrum of computational tasks, both massively parallel and when a large amount of dedicated RAM is required.

The system will be based on a bipolar structure, with reinforcement of the “Kore” parallel computing cluster managed in collaboration with FBK, alongside a private cloud system for unstructured computing tasks, obtained by reinforcing and updating the infrastructures already present in FEM. The infrastructure will be served by mass storage for the archiving of data and parallel storage capable of guaranteeing high I/O intensity workloads. The file system will guarantee transparent accessibility to data from all computing resources.
