In 2012, the Emilia-Romagna Region started build- ing up three regional data centers, to provide services to local Public Administrations (PAs), with an aim of reuse and efficiency, to be reached by reducing waste and costs.

Abstract
In 2012, the Emilia-Romagna Region started build- ing up three regional data centers, to provide services to local Public Administrations (PAs), with an aim of reuse and efficiency, to be reached by reducing waste and costs. The data centers are connected to each other in ultra-wide bandwidth technology, thanks to the optical fiber Lepida Network. A challenging theme for LepidaScpA was to manage orders for data center services offered to the shareholders, together with the management of the resources used in each of the three data centers, in a completely flexible and dedicated manner, remaining neutral with respect to the market. To meet this need, LepidaScpA created a system for administering data centers and related services, which allows management of service delivery, invoicing, and that allows to keep in real time an eye on the infrastructures supplied and the used ones. In this paper, the architecture and web service for the orders management will be described.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
