Abstract

This paper presents the journey taken by researchers at Queensland Cyber Infrastructure Foundation (QCIF) member universities in achieving research outcomes using QCIF eResearch services. Researchers at University of Southern Queensland (USQ) who need to host web services on tight research budgets encounter the challenge of competing priorities on scarce ICT resources. The process of either setting up a physical server or accessing locally hosted Virtual Machines (VM)s can be time consuming and expensive. This paper provides a study of the journeys of two researchers working on different projects requiring web hosting, detailing their experiences and how use of National eResearch Collaboration Tools and Resources (NeCTAR) VMs is enhancing their research outcomes. Through USQ's QCIF membership, the researchers were able to access NeCTAR VMs and eResearch service support that reduced the time, effort and cost of webhosting services for their research. The key value of the QCIF eResearch service delivered to the researchers was the integrated service model that was responsive to each researcher's unique requirements. The researchers were able to get questions answered and issues resolved in a timely way that allowed for a quick turnaround of their web server implementation. The collaborative approach to providing eResearch services offered by QCIF meant that the researchers in each of QCIF's member universities can draw on the resources, skills and expertise from a larger pool, thus enabling responsiveness, scalability and the agility required to respond to each researchers unique requirements. The eResearch analysts work in a close network and provide mutual support and collaboration in facilitating researcher outcomes.
