What is egi?

EGI (European Grid Infrastructure) is a collaboration of over 300 data centers and computing resources across Europe, providing a distributed computing infrastructure for research and science projects. EGI supports a wide range of scientific disciplines, such as physics, biology, and environmental science, by offering computational resources, storage capacity, and networking capabilities. EGI also plays a key role in managing and operating the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), which aims to provide a seamless access to research data and services for researchers across Europe. EGI is funded by the European Commission and participating countries, and is governed by a multi-stakeholder board representing the research community, industry, and government.
