E-GRANT: Resource Allocation Tool Features and Development
E-GRANT is an advanced resource allocation tool developed by EGI-Engage for efficiently managing resources allocation for projects related to computing, storage, and VMs. The tool allows customers to send requests, negotiate resources, sign SLAs, and view allocations. It also enables resources providers to specify resources for allocation, negotiate with customers, and analyze allocations. The E-GRANT system supports various types of resources, documents, allocation modes, and authorization methods to streamline the allocation process. Additionally, E-GRANT is continuously evolving with new features such as integration of full contract/SLA lifecycle, pay-per-use process, and support for special allocation types like seed resources and hackathons.

E-GRANT: EGI Resource Allocation Tool Features Customer can: send requests, negotiate resources, sign SLAs, view allocations Resources Provider can: specify resources as pools ready for allocation, negotiate allocation for specific customer, analyse current and planned allocations Broker (EGI) can: communicate with customers around request/SLA, run supported matching of a request with pools, communicate with resources providers, analyse current and planned allocations 4 types of resources: HTC Computing & Storage, Cloud Computing & Storage 4 types of documents: Requests, Pools, SLAs, and underpinned OLAs 3 modes of allocation: free-hand, right-to-revoke, full-negotiations 2 types of authorization: EGI SSO, X.509 e-GRANT.egi.eu
e-GRANT: EGI-Engage developments 1/2 Integration of full contract/SLA lifecycle Request -> Negotiations -> Acceptance Proper SLA (document) created based on template and negotiated metrics (1st step, in progress) Tracing of site-configuration (e.g. using BDII to check if site is supporting particular VOs) Monitoring of resources deliverery and QoS according to an SLA Integration with accounting viewes (SLA-specific views) Availability information integration of specific services Market-place integration Mission: support of allocation of computing, storage, VMs Self-allocation: supported matching pools enabled for customers (existing broker functionality) Support for special types of allocation for special offers or actions like seed-resources, demostrators, call-for-applications, hacathons e-GRANT.egi.eu
e-GRANT: EGI-Engage developments 2/2 Integration of pay-per-use proces Improving the prototype we build Enable negotiations; e.g. on prices Billing according contract/SLA (integration with accouting needed) Reporting Support integration with other e-Infrastructures Common, joined requests e-GRANT.egi.eu
