WP4 Orchestration and Secure Cloud/ HPC Services Provisioning

The “Orchestration and Secure Cloud/HPC Services Provisioning” focused on the integration of a set of technologies aimed at orchestrating the execution of application workflows, by leveraging on the both HPC and Cloud infrastructural resources available on IT4Innovations and LRZ supercomputing centres. Key aspects of the LEXIS orchestration system were: i) ensuring the users have the access to the infrastructure resources and data they are allowed to, by integrating a complete authentication and authorization solution; ii) dynamically managing the execution of workflows‘ tasks in a federated environment (i.e., using IT4Innovations and LRZ resources), also through data-locality aware policies;  iii) monitoring the execution of the workflows’ tasks and resources.
