A recording from the Engagement Call with Elixir AAI X. de.NBI Cloud integration with LS AAI is available on the ELIXIR YouTube channel.

This call is open to anybody from the community interested in ELIXIR’s work in AAI. This time, the topic is an overview of the federated de.NBI Cloud and its integration with LS AAI. de.NBI Cloud is one of the biggest infrastructures in LS AAI and its integration related use cases can be an inspiration for other communities and services. de.NBI Cloud is operated by The German Network for Bioinformatics Infrastructure. More information about de.NBI Cloud is available at https://www.denbi.de/cloud.

See TESS for more information.

This call is open to anybody from the community interested in ELIXIR’s work in AAI. This time, the topic is an overview of infrastructures other than ELIXIR, which are involved in the LS AAI and their utilization of the AAI.

A recording from the Engagement Call with Elixir AAI VI about Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) is available on the ELIXIR YouTube channel.

We would like to gather some ideas from you to design an interactive platform for sharing the AAI ideas within the community. We will very much appreciate if you can fill in the Survey (3 min).

In this call we provide a short introduction to Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI), a new paradigm for identity and access management. We then demonstrate a proof of concept for writing a researcher’s permissions to access a genomic dataset in their SSI wallet (in their smartphone) and then using it for accessing the datasets in a computing environment.

This call is open to anybody from the community who is interested in Self-sovereign identity, a new identity management paradigm. 

See TESS for more information.

The Life Science Login, a common user authentication and authorisation service for the LS research infrastructures, was launched on 11 April 2022. 

The target group of the training is developers and administrators of services who want to implement LS Login into their services, and make use of the LS Login authentication and authorization features. This is applicable for any new services that want to be connected to LS Login, including those coming from the ELIXIR community.

The training will be held on Tuesday 17 May 2022 from 13:00 CEST. See the training details.

In this call the implementers of GA4GH Cloud APIs in ELIXIR describe how the Workflow Execution Service (WES) and Task Execution Service (TES) enables a researcher to “bring compute to data” and how WES and TES make use of GA4GH Passports and other features of ELIXIR/Life Science AAI.

This call is open to anybody from the community who is interested in the GA4GH Cloud APIs and their integration to ELIXIR/Life Science AAI.

See TESS for more information.

11.4.2022 Elixir AAI user migration to LS Login was finished and LS Login is on production. There will be still few tests ongoing during 12.4 and following days. 

Please check Current outage section for details of not yet fully operating functionalities on Elixir AAI Migration News and general information, FAQ and guidelines on LS Login web.

Service migration phase will soon follow and you will be in time contacted with detailed instructions.

The special page for sharing information regarding ELIXIR AAI migration to LS Login was created. This page will be regularly updated with how-tos, important announcements and outage times.

See the Life Science RI website.

In this call we would like to present the plan and steps of Elixir AAI users and services in their migration to the LS AAI. An important part of the call will be a discussion.

This call is open to anybody from the community who is interested in the topics:

• ELIXIR AAI migration to EOSC LS AAI
• Service migration from of Elixir AAI to LS AAI

See TESS for more information.

In the third call, we took a closer look at AAIs related to the ELIXIR AAI. 

• EOSC AAI and ELIXIR/Life science AAI integration
• AARC guidelines
• New ELIXIR AAI features: IdP hinting, Current affiliation, and authenticating IdP identifier
