PaNdata ODI WP3 User Catalogue and AAI Service Mirjam van Daalen
DoW for WP3: User Catalogue and AAI Service Objective: To deploy, operate and evaluate a system for pan-European user identification across the participating facilities
Requirements P/N community What are the present and upcoming user needs? 25% of the users (25% of >30.000) do experiments at different facilities, transfacility access for users. Acces to and management of experimental data (also within the collaboration). Online entry mode: remote experiment access Access to efficient data analysis tools. Minimal administration load for users. Remote file access. Unified acces. Same method to acces tools and identify At the end all this needs a unique persistent user identification to have unified access to these tools.
Umbrella Characteristics Concept Unique persistent Identifier on EU scale independent of home institution life time account account owned by the user single sign-on no possibility for cross-facility information pull
Umbrella Characteristics Incorporate confidentiality aspects high competition, especially structural biology time-window-structured access to experiments and data. Authorisation is delegated to the systems participating in Umbrella for highest grade of independence in heterogeneous environments no complicated trust relationships
Umbrella Characteristics Rely on existing local user office structure Great experience Do It Yourself operation by the user Users: manage their personal entries User offices: supervising; manage authorizations Principal investigators: have responsibility for their teams and can handle authorization within their group Base system on professional authentication standard Shibboleth, federated Single-Sign-On System (SAML), widely used Special photon / neutron user federation Supervising by the local User Offices
Umbrella Characteristics Umbrella is the basis for various user services under development Info & service portal European proposal support (NMI3 & CALIPSO) Remote experiment access Remote file access Metadata catalogue (iCAT) Without a unique identifier it will not be possible to have unified access and work with these tools. Unified acces. Same method to acces tools and identify

Status & future Operation of the Umbrella platform after finishing the PaNData ODI project 30.09.2014 ILL takes over the operation of the Umbrella platform, starting from the 01.10.2014 . “GNU Lesser General Public License” LGPL for Umbrella inserted in MoU Umbrella project was finished as foreseen within the PaNdata ODI project. MoU should be signed end of this month (10 partners ok). Users tutorial & Operators handbook Umbrella ready at: umbrellaid.org Umbrella as a AAI for new services and projects.

Umbrella status Full deployment and signature of MoU end of 2014 1st wave: ILL, ESRF, PSI online since August 2013 Elettra October 2013 2nd wave: DESY, ISIS, Diamond, Soleil, KIT, MaxIV (Nov 2013 – August 2014) Full deployment and signature of MoU end of 2014
In operation Basic Umbrella https://umbrellaid.org/euu/ Geo DNS (server Umbrella distributed between different facilities) Access to iCAT metadata catalogue via Umbrella (PaNdata ODI development)
Ready to put into operation Umbrella Status Ready to put into operation Access to Umbrella via EduGain (CRISP, Geant 3+, Switch) Login with account home institution (Universities etc.) Bridging of Umbrella to Moonshot (CRISP, Geant 3+ , non web based access) Remote experiment access EU affiliation database (PaNdata ODI WP3) Too much resources to merge with existing databases Start with new facility, e.g, EU XFEL
