2. What is FEDERICA ? A Europe-wide, physical e-Infrastructure based on virtualization in all its components: 13 points of presence in 10 countries 22 WAN circuits at 1 Gigabit (Ethernet) 13 router/switches, 20 V-Nodes Operational since Nov 2008 network elements and computing elements
3. The FEDERICA service Create full testbeds (slices) according to user’s specification (topology, resources type, number) The user has complete control on the slice. A “slice” Routers A “portal” A “topology” Nodes FEDERICA substrate (only CORE is shown) Global Internet
4. Until when, where, cost ? The facility is open until March 2011 . Access is from anywhere in Internet. There are no fees for standard usage. The user receives the slice (no automatic provisioning yet) and configures the resources according to its needs (e.g. with its own system images, protocols, applications).
