Purpose

This working group exists to identify key ACCESS resources, requirements, and policies that support the onboarding and implementation of ACCESS OnDemand for Resource Providers.

Goals and Scope

 The goal of the ACCESS OnDemand project is to leverage the Open OnDemand platform to enable greater productivity for researchers using resources supported by ACCESS. We hope to drive adoption of the OnDemand platform by raising its value through a combination of increased utility of OnDemand to researchers and decreased overhead for resource providers to install, configure, and support. More specifically, the scope of the project is to develop:

...

Integration capabilities between an OnDemand deployment and production ACCESS services (e.g., authentication, support, metrics).

...

Integration roadmaps for resource providers to deploy OnDemand more easily and to configure connections to ACCESS services.

...

Communication channel for OnDemand activities to ACCESS Tracks, resource providers and researchers.

...
