Ressource Lifecycle Management
Users will be able to book and manage specific service ressources via the Cloud Portal, for themselves or their VOs.
Service Providers have the option of providing their service ressources not only as "free for all", but under a dedicated ressource lifecylce management. They can specify a capacity for the ressource, a per-booking-quota and per-booking time limits. The users will then only be able to access this specific ressource after they have booked it via the Cloud Portal.
The booking itself will be communicated from the Cloud Portal to the Service via the HCA.
