GRIDipedia – The European Grid Marketplace

This Common Capability relates to the integration of existing licence servers. It not just addresses a possible encapsulation as a web service but more generally an integration of the licence server into the respective grid middlewares.

The above CC allows a user to:

• Extract information about usage, accounting, billing
• Extract information about the status of a licence related SLA.

The corresponding design pattern strongly depends on the respective middlewares.
