“…For instance, in the D-Grid Reference Installation [1], there is no connectivity between the front-end and the compute nodes. However, this is presumably necessary for the VFE depending on the setup of the LRMS used within a delegation.…”

Infrastructure federation is becoming an increasingly important issue for modernDistributed Computing Infrastructures (DCIs): Dynamic elasticity of quasi-static Grid environments, incorporation of special-purpose resources into commoditized Cloud infrastructures, crosscommunity collaboration for increasingly diverging areas of modern e-Science, and Cloud Bursting pose major challenges on the technical level for many resource and middleware providers. Especially with respect to increasing costs of operating data centers, the intelligent yet automated and secure sharing of resources is a key factor for success. With the D-Grid Scheduler Interoperability (DGSI) project within the German D-Grid Initiative, we provide a strategic technology for the automatically negotiated, SLAsecured, dynamically provisioned federation of resources and services for Grid-and Cloud-type infrastructures. This goal is achieved by complementing current DCI schedulers with the ability to federate infrastructure for the temporary leasing of resources and rechanneling of workloads. In this work, we describe the overall architecture and SLA-secured negotiation protocols within DGSI and depict an advanced mechanism for resource delegation through means of dynamically provisioned, virtualized middleware. Through this methodology, we provide the technological foundation for intelligent capacity planning and workload management in a cross-infrastructure fashion. 356 G. Birkenheuer et al.

“…Figure 2 shows a structural overview of the setup for the reference installation released on 15th of January, 2009. A unique feature of D-Grid infratructure is that all functional aspects are covered not by just one single middleware, but several middleware stacks are available [11].…”

The D-Grid reference installation is a test platform for the German grid initiative. The main task is to create the grid prototype for software and hardware components needed in the D-Grid community. For each grid-related task field different alternative middleware is included. With respect to changing demands from the community, new versions of the reference installation are released every six months.

“…The D-Grid infrastructure set up by the German e-Science initiative [7] enables users from many scientific fields, grouped into communities realized as VOs, to exploit Grid computing for their specific applications. It is a large and complex Grid infrastructure with stakeholders from different organizations.…”

“…The representation can then be used as a template to compose the VOs as well as related monitoring data according to the VO's actual allocations of resources and services. In current Grid infrastructures, amongst others, services like the VO Membership Services (VOMS) and Grid Resource Repository Service (GRRS) [7] may serve as PDPs. Figure 1 shows the functional components and transactions of the system described above.…”

“…In the following, we describe a distributed monitoring architecture for an interoperable and integrated information service as developed within the German e-Science monitoring project D-MON [6] as well as its implementation within the D-Grid infrastructure set up by the German e-Science initiative [7]. The developed service combines data unification and categorization with policies for VO membership, VO resource management, and data transformations between different data models.…”
