Agenda

1. Recent conference roundup:

Cloud stuff: more advanced cloud services, like integrity as a service,
or preservation as a service?

Can we do more advanced services with grid jobs?  Could you build an
iRODS-type interface on top of SRM?  Is it worth it?

2. Ian Bird's presentation for today's GDB.  Using Hadoop "in the way it was designed to be used."

3. virtual machines for a batch system: CernVM/CernVMFS.  WN-on-demand.

[10:17:31] Ewan Mac Mahon That does sound like the sort of thing that should be layered over generic services, not be built into them.
[10:24:57] Wahid Bhimji That point was specific to monitoring ... the hadoop one
[10:25:16] Wahid Bhimji (I think ) - anyway we could listen in in person to find out what he means

[10:31:11] Ewan Mac Mahon seems to be a talk about the thing I was thinking of.
[10:31:31] Ewan Mac Mahon Actually, that may be a worse than neccessary URL....
[10:33:02] Ewan Mac Mahon I was planning to leave the ticket on hold until the upgrade is done, so that it works as a tracker.
