14. Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe in der Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft Tier 1/2 Meeting and 47. Session GridKa TAB, 2.-3. March 2006 Two grid infrastructures are now in operation, on which we are able to build computing services for LHC Reliability and performance have improved significantly over the past year The focus of Service Challenge 4 is to demonstrate a basic but reliable service that can be scaled up - by April 2007 - to the capacity and performance needed for the first beams. Development of new functionality and services must continue, but we must be careful that this does not interfere with the main priority for this year – reliable operation of the baseline services Summary (taken from Jamie Shiers / SC4 Mumbai)
