Description

A key missing component in Apache Airavata today is to give science gateway administrators the ability to assign and manage allocations to their users to make sure that a few users don’t use up the gateway’s entire supercomputing allocation. Students who participate in this activity will develop a new Apache Airavata component that will include a database backend, middleware, and an API for the component.

The Allocation Manager enables tenant gateways define allocation policies and available resources. Users of gateways (typically researchers and educators) can request appropriate resources to accomplish their research objectives by providing a justification.
