The Operations Centre of the Romanian National Grid Infrastructure (NGI-RO) currently provides a broad spectrum of computing resources and services to various non high-energy physics research communities. The available computing paradigms include HPC (MPI/CPU and CUDA/GPGPU), grid computing, and cloud - which facilitates the provision, allocation and delivery of resources on demand for scientific researchers. As manager of the only Romanian cloud centre that is certified within the European Infrastructure for Advanced Computing (EGI) and connected to the EGI Federated Cloud - which is implementing the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), IFIN-HH strives for including the national research communities among the beneficiaries of the future EOSC infrastructure. Therefore, the sites managed by the Operations Centre support scientific areas of major interest in the national and European research strategies, such as the physics of intense laser - nuclear matter interaction, computational biology, nanomaterials technology and quantum optics devices. This article reviews the recent developments regarding the support provided through the infrastructure of the GRIDIFIN and CLOUDIFIN sites to the experimental groups of the Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) ESFRI, the community of computational biologists, the researchers in condensed matter physics and nanomaterial technology. |
