The EOSC EU Node services were launched in October 2024. It will provide a technical and administrative blueprint and interoperability framework for establishing other potential infrastructure node candidates. It replaced launched in November 2018 the EOSC Portal and its integral part, EOSC Marketplace Resources, which was the previous place to access services and resources for researchers. MOST Knowledge: Open Research Data was integrated into the EOSC Marketplace as a data provider in 2023.

EOSC EU Node platform supports multidisciplinary and international research using data according to FAIR principles. Within this environment, researchers can access tools and services that support scientific processes, communication, and data exchange between research teams, such as ownCloud, Jupyter Notebooks, mass file transfer, real-time data synchronization, and virtual machines.

Resources within the European Open Science Cloud are also available to researchers at the Gdansk University of Technology. To do so, go to the EOSC EU Node website and, in the log-in section, select "Gdansk University of Technology" as your home institution. After being transferred to the login page of Gdansk Tech, use the credentials for "Moja PG". After successful verification, you will be able to access a panel of services and tools, as well as a certain number of virtual credits for purchasing these services. For example, 50GB of space located in the cloud costs 10 credits per month. The number of credits granted varies for different groups:

  • AP-0 (Explorer - users who are not authenticated, i.e., not logged in): not applicable
  • AP-A (Observer - users who have successfully authenticated via eduGAIN inter-federation and EU Login): 0 credits
  • AP-A1 (Collaborator - users authenticated via eduGAIN inter-federation and EU Login with affiliation attributes of employee and staff, i.e., faculty, students, affiliates, members are excluded from this group): 1000 credits
  • AP-B (Investigator - users authenticated via eduGAIN inter-federation and EU Login with affiliation attributes of faculty only (i.e., expected attribute of academic researchers): 2000 credits for users, 6000 credits for groups

The pool of credits renews every three months.
