The document discusses the European Grid Infrastructure (EGI), which provides distributed computing resources for data-intensive research. EGI coordinates resources contributed by national grid initiatives across Europe. It is established as a non-profit foundation governed by participating national grid organizations. The goals of EGI include enabling secure access to distributed resources for European researchers and supporting data- and compute-intensive domains like high energy physics, life sciences, and earth science.
