Italian Grid Infrastructure

<p>The INFN Grid project was an initiative of the <a href="/facts/Istituto_Nazionale_di_Fisica_Nucleare/ANvQsBVE">Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare</a> (INFN) —Italy's National Institute for Nuclear Physics—for <a href="/facts/Grid_computing/2GQhzN5l">grid computing</a>. It was intended to develop and deploy grid <a href="/facts/Middleware/HobNosz9">middleware</a> services to allow INFN's users to transparently and securely share the computing and storage resources together with applications and technical facilities for scientific collaborations.
</p><p>With the beginning of the <a href="/facts/European_Grid_Infrastructure/y1NMAbMc">European Grid Infrastructure</a> (EGI) project in 2010, the activities of INFN Grid were consolidated into the Italian Grid Infrastructure (IGI) which operates as a European joint research unit (JRU) formally supported by the Italian Ministry for University and Research (MIUR) and the <a href="/facts/European_Commission/Cc5JgbEI">European Commission</a>.
