Dear all, we have been using a community account at the Fiware Lab (Cloud) so far. However, the account has expired - and we would like to use it in the future as well. At the beginning of the current community account we had several problems to find a suitably compiled CentOS. Initially we were on Lannion node which proved to be a version with slightly outdate libraries not compatible with our application (more info in this below). Still, we would like to use it more heavily in the future, since we got our application running in Spain. Would it be possible to extend the duration of the account and if so under which conditions? Would it event be possible to extend to computational capacity that we can request? We even would like to include a customer management system from the Fiware Enablers list. The name it was registered under is my name: Dr.-Ing. Iris Pantle e-Mail: pantle'et'nuberisim.de So far the best node to install our platform and to use it, was the Spain node. Our motivation to continue the account is as follows (please refer to more details in the attachement): Fluid flow is noisy, annoying and health critical for people continuously exposedto it. Examples are aircraft, wind turbines, automobiles, climatization, household devices like hovers or kitchen hoods. For the latter low noise devices are a competitive advantage. For others like wind turbines restrictive noise regulations are in place, particularly when operated close to settlements. Low noise design principles need integration in the design and construction phase of devices as early as possible, in order to reduce costs, failures, and improve energetic impact. This can only be reached by numerical simulations. So far the computational demand of fluid flow simulations coupled directly with acoustical predictions inhibited establishing appropriate and efficient workflows. Particularly, engineering houses (simulation service suppliers) or SMEs require access to appropriate flow and noise prediction software plus high performance computing architecture. _In contrast to available solutions the Nuberisim platform is solving both issues: providing specialized software for coupled fluid flow and noise prediction as a web application with intuitive access to a high performance computing infrastructure (provided by computing centers or Cloud). This project is both in need and ideally suited for running on the FIWARE Cloud. Our start-up Falquez, Pantle and Pritz GbR (founded in 2014) has developed the Nuberisim platform concept. Nuberisim consists of the software for fluid flow and noise simulation, largely developed at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), and the platform environment. After successful deployment of the prototype (see URL and more details in the attachement), three elements are required, where the FIWARE Cloud and the FIWARE Enablers will leverage significantly development time and time-to-market. The latter is expected to be performed within the next weeks instead of the next half year. The three elements are: # Use 3 different Generic Enablers (see box "Additional Comments"); # Use the FIWARE Lab Cloud for free test accounts for our professional pilot customers; # Expand the service drastically at a second stage after testing through professional customers. The Enablers are needed to integrate efficient 3D visualisation of the simulation data (grids, results), to efficiently render them for the customers and stream them to their browsers. Next to testing the Enablers, the FIWARE Lab Cloud is urgently needed at this moment for offering free test accounts for professional first time customers. Only recently a successful "mass test" with students of the basic Nuberisim functions (login, configuration of simulations, starting parallelized simulations through 30 people at the same time, receiving convergence data streamed plots) has been performed and first pilot customers are currently testing Nuberisim. However, since the prototype is running on AWS instances which need to be kept online for testing, this causes substantial costs per month. The limited resources of the start-up limit heavy customer testing and therefore delay the time-to-market significantly.
