An overview of the CERN deployment can be found in the 2005 article [http://cerncourier.com/cws/article/cnl/22404 ELFms at CERN]. 18 19 19 20 20 == CNAF==21 === CNAF === 21 22 [[Image(cnaf_storage.jpg, right)]] 22 23 CNAF is the National Center of [http://www.infn.it/indexen.php INFN] (Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics) for Research and Development activities in Information Technologies applied to High Energy physics. Since 2005, [http://www.cnaf.infn.it/main/index.php/en/ CNAF] has been the Italian Tier-1 center for LHC experiments and a reference computing center for several other experiments. As of November 2008, it provides distributed access to about 7MSI2K of CPU power, 2.3 PB of disk and 3PB of tape space. CNAF system administrators uniformly manage more than 1000 nodes (most of them running the EGEE middleware) with Quattor. 23 24 24 25 25 == UAM==26 === UAM === 26 27 27 28 The high-energy physics group at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM) … … 37 38 38 39 39 == Nikhef==40 === Nikhef === 40 41 [http://www.nikhef.nl Nikhef] is the National Institute for Subatomic Physics in Amsterdam (Netherlands). Nikhef participates in various grid projects, such as EGEE and [http://www.biggrid.nl BigGrid], and is one of the computing centers in the Dutch Tier-1 for LHC experiments. The grid infrastructure at Nikhef, which consists of 300 hosts, is managed using Quattor. 41 42 42 43 43 == STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory==44 === STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory === 44 45 45 46 The group responsible for running the [http://www.gridpp.ac.uk/tier1a UK's Tier-1 site] at the [http://www.stfc.ac.uk STFC] Rutherford Appleton Laboratory as part of the [http://www.gridpp.ac.uk GridPP] Project have been using Quattor to deploy and manage all new and redeployed hosts since late 2009. … … 48 49 49 50 50 = Regional grid infrastructures=51 == Regional grid infrastructures == 51 52 52 53 Large grid infrastructures such as [http://eu-egee.org EGEE] are … … 56 57 burden across multiple sites. 57 58 58 == Grid-Ireland==59 === Grid-Ireland === 59 60 [[Image(SFTMap-150.jpg, right)]] 60 61 [http://grid.ie Grid-Ireland] is the national computational grid for Ireland, and is made up of eighteen sites managed from the [http://www.grid.ie/opscentre.html Operations Centre] based at [http://www.cs.tcd.ie Trinity College Dublin]. Over 400 machines are now managed using quattor, including a 768-core cluster at TCD used for processing jobs from [http://eu-egee.org EGEE] and Grid-Ireland users. … … 62 63 Grid-Ireland makes extensive use of Xen virtual machines to host services. All of these VMs are automatically configured using quattor. 63 64 64 == BEgrid==65 === BEgrid === 65 66 66 == GRIF==67 === GRIF === 67 68 68 69 [http://grif.fr GRIF] is a site of [http://www.eu-egee.org/ EGEE] grid in Paris region (France). It is made up of six subsites in different geographical locations but is only one site in the GRID. It is particular one of the largest T2 of [http://lcg.web.cern.ch/LCG/ WLCG], the computing infrastructure for [http://cern.ch CERN LHC]. More than 600 machines, including compute servers, storage servers with a total amount of more than 1 PB, non-grid servers and desktops, are managed by a team of 20 people located at the different sites. Quattor is critial site at GRIF to ensure both consistency of the whole site despite its distribution and allow every body to participate to the management of the global site, according to its expertise, leveraging the manpower available and avoiding duplication of efforts. 69 70 70 == HellasGrid==71 === HellasGrid === 71 72 [http://www.hellasgrid.gr HellasGrid] is the national computational grid for Greece. Greek sites are currently using Quattor mainly for the base node installation (bootstrap). Sites hosted by [http://www.grid.auth.gr GridAUTH] are totally managed by Quattor. Till now GridAUTH's quattor server manages 2 Tier-2 sites with a total number of 150 nodes. The current Quattor managed infrastructure include both region core services (i.e. WMS, VOMS, Hydra servers, Web servers) and site services (i.e. UI, WN, CE, SE, MON). 72 73 73 = Industry=74 == Banking==74 == Industry == 75 === Banking === 75 76 76 77 Since November 2008, a financial institution in North America is using Quattor to manage a datacenter of 6,500 grid nodes. Quattor manages not only the compute nodes, but also many of the core infrastructure services, with a view to gradually increase the footprint of Quattor management into more of the core. 77 78 78 == Philips Research==79 === Philips Research === 79 80 80 81 Philips Research participates in various grid projects, one of which is BiGGrid. A part of BiGGrid is hosted by Philips Research at the High Tech Campus (HTC), Eindhoven, The Netherlands. The main grid infrastructure of about 1600 cores at HTC Eindhoven is managed through Quattor.
