Cloud computing has revolutionized the way data is stored, processed, and accessed in the modern world. With the increasing amount of data being generated every day, researchers are constantly looking for ways to efficiently manage and analyze this data. In Africa, where research funding and resources can be limited, online training on cloud federation has become a valuable tool for researchers to enhance their skills and stay competitive in the global research community.
The Global Open Science Cloud (GOSC) workshop, organized by CODATA, The Committee on Data for Science and Technology, is offering an online training program for African researchers on cloud federation from 20-24 May. This workshop aims to provide researchers with the knowledge and skills needed to effectively utilize cloud computing resources for their research projects.
Cloud federation is a concept that allows researchers to access and use multiple cloud computing resources from different providers seamlessly. This enables researchers to scale their computing resources as needed, collaborate with other researchers, and access specialized tools and services that may not be available on a single cloud platform.
The GOSC workshop will cover a range of topics related to cloud federation, including an introduction to cloud computing, best practices for data management in the cloud, security and privacy considerations, and hands-on training on using popular cloud platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Azure.
Participants will have the opportunity to learn from experts in the field of cloud computing and network with other researchers from across Africa. The workshop will also provide practical guidance on how to apply for research grants and funding opportunities that support cloud computing initiatives.
Registration for the GOSC workshop is now open, and researchers from all disciplines are encouraged to apply. The workshop is free of charge for African researchers, thanks to funding support from CODATA and other partners.
By participating in the GOSC workshop, African researchers can gain valuable skills and knowledge that will help them advance their research projects and contribute to the global scientific community. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your research capabilities – register now for the GOSC workshop on cloud federation!
