In the area of the economy, development works focus on providing modern cloud container solutions and new services, among others. HPCaaS (HPC as a Service). The overarching goal is to improve the position on European and global markets of the Polish economy by supporting and strengthening the development of innovative solutions in cooperation with the private sector, with special emphasis on SMEs, with the scientific sector. The overarching objectives of the project will be achieved through one of the main challenges of the Europe Innovation Programme for ERA (European Research Area), the ESFRI Committee’s demands on the integration of research infrastructures (IB) and ICT infrastructures, and guidelines for the development of the top-class new research infrastructures of the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme. The hardware and software platform of the created Research Infrastructure will be built as part of the development work involving: 1. HPC e-infrastructure laboratory 2. Service platform lab 3. Next Generation 4 Computing Services Laboratory. Laboratory for analysis of large-scale data
