Abstract
Handling, processing and archiving the huge amount of data produced by the new generation of experiments and instruments in Astronomy and Astrophysics are among the more exciting challenges to address in designing the future data management infrastructures and computing services. We investigated the feasibility of a data management and computation infrastructure, available world-wide, with the aim of merging the FAIR data management
provided by IVOA standards with the efficiency and reliability of a cloud approach. Our work involved the Canadian Advanced Network for Astronomy
Research (CANFAR) infrastructure and the European EGI federated cloud
(EFC). We designed and deployed a pilot data management and computation
infrastructure that provides IVOA-compliant VOSpace storage resources and
wide access to interoperable federated clouds. In this paper, we detail the
main user requirements covered, the technical choices and the implemented
solutions and we describe the resulting Hybrid cloud Worldwide infrastructure, its benefits and limitations
