The EOSC Early Adopter Programme (EAP) is a programme launched by EOSC-hub for research communities interested in exploring the latest state-of-art technologies and services offered by the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).

The EOSC-hub project’s aim has been to create a hub of service providers to accelerate datadriven research in Europe. The project started in January 2018 and a lot of work has been done in order to reach this ambitious goal.

This Briefing Paper contains an update to the initial proposals for the organisation and composition of the EOSC Federating Core which were originally published in July 2019, based on feedback received from the research community. It also contains recommendations for an overall vision for the EOSC, its funding model and its value proposition

This Briefing Paper examines EOSC use cases involving cross-border consumption of rivalrous resources and analysing the EOSC using an approach to business modelling called Platform Design.

This publication - available on Zenodo - provides a snapshot about the communities that have been engaged by the EOSC-hub project until the end of June 2020.

The EOSC hub project aims to create a hub of service providers to accelerate data-driven research in Europe. Nine Key Exploitable Results (KER) have been produced to support this goal and they are described in this presentation.

This handbook -  available on Zenodo - provides assistance for service providers who want to share services via EOSC with the use of EOSC-hub services. (May 2020)

This Briefing Paper contains an initial proposal of the EOSC Federating Core, illustrating a possible approach to its composition and relating it to functional and non-functional requirements emerging from EOSC use cases. Initial proposals for its governance and sustainability are also put forward, provided as input towards the ongoing implementation of the European Open Science Cloud.
