The first version of the Cloud Infrastructure, Incentives Management and Data Governance software prototype includes the cloud gateways and APIs, the cloud provisioning mechanisms, the implemented version of the algorithms as well as the data governance tools according to the D3.1 specifications. The prototype’s cloud infrastructure will be supported by RECAS-BARI and will be utilized by EGI through cloud gateways. These gateways allow the prototype to gather data from heterogenous data sources, such as from twitter and the global terrorism database. This first version of the prototype also includes an ABAC based access control mechanism suitable for Policy Cloud. This is broken down to 3 key components that can be combined, along with a test client, in order to demonstrate the access control capabilities to the use cases and to proceed with the definition of an accurate data model, based on the provided feedback. An updated version of this prototype will be delivered and documented at a later stage for deliverables D3.4 and D3.7.

This document is the first deliverable of WP3. It provides information about the work performed in tasks T3.1, T3.3, T3.4, and T3.6. As it covers various tasks, this document provides the information regarding a) cloud provisioning and utilization of cloud resources for PolicyCLOUD, b) the design of the cloud gateways and their APIs, c) the incentives management and identification in the scope of PolicyCLOUD, and d) the data privacy and governance mechanism. This document is the initial iteration of this report while two more iterations will be provided through the documents D3.4 (due on M20) and D3.7 (due on M32)
