Being a Member of the NGS
Once a site is a member of the NGS then we aim to build a long term relationship between ourselves and the site. This includes both Campus Champions and Resource Exchanging members.
A Resource Exchanging member of the NGS has representation on the NGS Collaboration Board.
An NGS member site can attend NGS Surgery events.
An NGS member site should understand its responsibilities for NGS Security, including reporting security incidents that may involve other
Resource Exchanging Members
There are two distinct ways for resource providers to join the NGS, either as an NGS partner, or as an NGS affiliate. Both partners and affiliates run NGS compatible software, and integrate monitoring and support arrangements with the NGS. Partners also contribute significant resources to NGS users at large. A Partner must also complete a Service Level Description document which defines what they provide to the user community. Below are the lists of current members;
