ScienceMesh

CERN operates CERNBox, a synchronisation and file-sharing platform integrated with the laboratory’s computing infrastructure and specialised applications, such as JupyterLab, HTC (HTCondor), and viewers/editors for ROOT and markdown formats.
As part of ScienceMesh, CERNBox enables seamless data sharing and collaboration across diverse platforms without requiring a common authentication infrastructure.
CERN has significantly contributed to ScienceMesh’s technology and standards, including Open Cloud Mesh (OCM) and Cloud Storage Synchronisation and Sharing (CS3) APIs, and led the CS3Mesh4EOSC project.
By integrating ScienceMesh with EOSC Data Commons services, CERNBox will allow users to discover and directly import datasets via the Matchmaker, facilitated by the Data Player.
Processing can be done on integrated HPC resources, JupyterLab, and HTC (HTCondor). Users can easily share preliminary analyses, collaborate via Jupyter notebooks, and finalise results, which are then deposited and discoverable through CERNBox or project-specific repositories.

• Integration of HPC resources into ScienceMesh via CERNBox support for CephFS;
• ScienceMesh integration into EOSC Data Commons services;
• Integration with the EOSC EU Node (with their collaboration)

ScienceMesh/CERNBox is integrated with the EOSC Data Commons platform.
