The project implements a practical approach to address the potential of cloud based open science to achieve a set of services identifying also longer term challenges to build and demonstrate the Pilot Blue Cloud as a thematic EOSC cloud to support research to better understand & manage the many aspects of ocean sustainability, through a set of five pilot Blue-Cloud demonstrators.

Blue-Cloud, in thirty-six months, aims to address the need to build and demonstrate the Pilot Blue Cloud as a thematic EOSC cloud to support research to better understand and manage the many aspects of ocean sustainability, through a set of five compelling pilot Blue-Cloud demonstrators. Moreover, it seeks to capitalise on what exists already and to develop and deploy, though a pragmatic workplan, the Pilot Blue Cloud as a cyber platform bringing together and providing access to: 1) multidisciplinary data from observations and models, 2) analytical tools, & 3) computing facilities essential for key blue science use cases. Led by a consortium of experienced and complementary partners, the project maintains a practical approach to address the potential of cloud-based open science to achieve a set of services identifying also longer terms challenges that will provide the basis for a BlueCloud Roadmap to serve the wider community.
