The massive scale and global availability of cloud-based services have spawned an entirely new generation of services that for practical purposes had been well out of reach for individual institutions and researchers. In effect, this necessary sharing of services has the consequence of bringing researchers previously working in isolated islands of activity into close proximity to one another and opening the doors to new levels of interaction and collaboration.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;color:black">While otherwise comfortable with the notion of “shared” or “utility” infrastructure – such is the attraction of working at a large R1 or research institute – for good scientific reasons, the research community is wary of any limiting consequences of standards when using shared technology resources and where the precise and complete control over the technology architecture is critical to the science itself. Such concerns aside, there is much promise in having computing services available as a utility for many areas of scientific research where compute standards and form are not immediately impactful on research outcomes – but availability and ease of use are.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;color:black">While offering great potential for game-changing innovation, current cloud computing platforms have performance and capability limitations that reduce their effectiveness as alternatives to highly configurable on premise resources. As the scientific community adopts cloud infrastructure, application mobility, portability, security, and ubiquitous availability become increasingly important to support the democratization of research capability and access to research computing resources.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;color:black">One important consequence of moving to the effective commoditization of research cloud computing is that increasing portions of on premise research computing resources can be allocated towards more innovative research computing architectures. As the migration to cloud services is also accelerating the translation of new innovation into large-scale availability, any effort to enhance the pathway for translation would be highly beneficial.</span><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;color:black">As such, it is simple prudence that suggests that both on premise and provider resources must be cultivated and nurtured.
