Cloud services are built in a service-oriented architecture and allow different service models such as infrastructure as a service, platforms as a service, software as a service. For our research customers, they offer more and customised options for their research projects.

The interaction of the categories compute, network and storage is our area of interest. Our focus is therefore particularly on virtualisation and networking of
