Overall Objectives The Helix Nebula project is a preliminary step towards a European cloud- based scientific e-infrastructure 1. A platform capable of development through PPP into a scalable science cloud 2. A flexible governance structure capable of growing alongside the infrastructure itself 3. Representations of functional and non‐functional requirements including policies for trust, security and privacy 4. Agreements regarding inter‐operability with other, existing, e‐infrastructures 5. Three flagships based at CERN, EMBL and ESA (represented by CNR), selected as ‘stretch’ targets highlighting extreme cases of the requirements of the ERA 6. Sustainable business models adhering to and supporting European‐level policies 7. A roadmap and development plan for addressing issues on the road to 2020 03/July/2013 Helix Nebula review- Bob Jones - CERN 5

Management Tasks The pre-financing was distributed in two installments to avoid overspending of funds without achievement of tasks Successful launch of a dry-run of the financial reporting process covering the first 7 months of the project in order to: identify any missing information and issues that could arise Monitor the resource consumption during the first half of the period Review of progress and plans at the General Assemblies Tools provided (at no cost to the project) The open repository for all Helix Nebula documents on the CERN Doc. System (CDS) The contents of the communication tools (website, Facebook, Twitter) approved by Mgmt Team. Website hosted by CloudSigma The AlfrescoShare Entreprise collaboration tool to share documents within the inititiative/project provided by EMBL Indico tool for meeting organisation provided by CERN The 21 email lists (hosted EGI.eu and CERN) 03/July/2013 Helix Nebula review- Bob Jones - CERN 16
