Piloted solutions

The AARC team has piloted existing AAI solutions to assess whether they meet the functional and technical integration requirements of research communities and e-infrastructures. Where possible, the components were improved with additional features as needed.

Our goal is to improve the usability and the visibility of useful AAI solutions and components. To do this, they are described according to a standard template that includes the aim of the pilot, the software sources used, a functional flow and where possible a live demo.
