Globus automation services: Research process automation across the space–time continuum
نویسندگان
چکیده
Research process automation–the reliable, efficient, and reproducible execution of linked sets actions on scientific instruments, computers, data stores, other resources–has emerged as an essential element modern science. We report here new services within the Globus research management platform that enable specification diverse processes reusable actions, flows, such flows in heterogeneous environments. To support with broad spatial extent (e.g., from instrument to remote center) temporal (from seconds weeks), these automation feature: (1) cloud hosting for reliable even long-lived despite sporadic failures; (2) a simple extensible asynchronous action provider API, defining executing wide variety involving resources; (3) event-driven model automating response arbitrary events; (4) rich security enabling authorization delegation mechanisms secure long-running across distributed resources. These permit researchers outsource automate range tasks scalable, platform. present use cases services, describe their design implementation, microbenchmark studies, review experiences applying applications.
