Building up the EOSC Federation — •Ute Gunsenheimer — EOSC Association

The European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) envisions a unified system in Europe to enable researchers to store, share, process, and reuse FAIR data and services across disciplines and borders. Central to this vision is the EOSC Federation, a network of interconnected nodes, that will provide seamless access to scientific data and resources. With the public launch of the EOSC EU Node in October 2024, the development of the EOSC Federation has gained significant momentum. To realise its full potential, the EOSC Federation requires the enrolment of additional EOSC Nodes. The nodes will act as entry points to the Federation.

To enable the establishment of such a distributed system, many questions remain to be addressed, including defining minimum requirements for EOSC Nodes, establishing enrolment rules, ensuring effective governance, and developing financial mechanisms to support resource sharing. Answering these questions is critical to building a robust, distributed infrastructure that drives Open Science and innovation in Europe.

By the time of the conference, the first wave of EOSC Nodes will have been identified, representing a diverse range of thematic and national communities across Europe. At the same time, active work on the enrolment process will have been kicked-off.

This talk will explore the progress, challenges, and future steps in shaping the EOSC Federation.
