We propose to create a technology demonstrator utilising the SnowflakeTM multi-cloud data fabric to show how a multi-institute, multi-council ecosystem can utilise the same platform for accelerating collaborative research, whilst still observing rigorous access and security management.Our vision for the next generation of Trusted Research Environments (TRE) is to create a general purpose capability which works for the majority of researchers, the majority of the time, expressly moving away from previous concepts of discrete, monolithic environments, to a distributed ‘data fabric’ which provides the ‘glue’ between any existing institutional investments.The key innovations we see as necessary are:• Moving to a ‘compute in situ’ model, away from the current paradigm of ‘download and compute elsewhere’ which dominates many TRE infrastructures• Creating a modular architecture, which creates generic services for processes such as research access management• Providing ‘out of the box’ workflows to expedite the creation and management of international, multi-party consortia, guaranteeing compliance with in-country data sovereignty and DPR legislation• Providing a bridge between academia, public sector bodies, especially the NHS, and industry• Resolve asymmetry of access to computing and storage environments across the research ecosystem, allowing contribution by talent, not wealth of institution

我们建议利用 SnowflakeTM 多云数据结构创建一个技术演示器，以展示多机构、多理事会生态系统如何利用同一平台加速协作研究，同时仍然遵守严格的访问和安全管理。下一代可信研究环境（TRE）旨在创建一种通用功能，在大多数时间为大多数研究人员提供服务，明确摆脱以前离散、整体环境的概念，转向分布式“数据”结构”，它在任何现有机构投资之间提供了“粘合剂”。我们认为必要的关键创新是：• 转向“原位计算”模型，远离当前主导许多 TRE 的“在别处下载和计算”模式基础设施• 创建模块化架构，为研究访问管理等流程创建通用服务• 提供“开箱即用”的工作流程，以加快国际多方联盟的创建和管理，保证遵守国内数据主权和民主共和国主权立法• 在学术界、公共部门机构（特别是NHS）和工业界之间架起一座桥梁• 解决整个研究生态系统中计算和存储环境访问的不对称性，允许人才做出贡献，而不是机构财富
