Incubator/GEMLCA

From Globus

GEMLCA is an Incubator project that aims to create a production-level solution to "gridify" (or grid-enable) legacy codes in order to run them on the Grid.

This GlobDev project webpage contains information for project committers and contributors. Information for users of GEMLCA can be found here.

Incubator Product Overview

Overview of the project objectives:

  • To support the easy deployment of legacy code programs exposed as Grid services. To achieve this, the interfaces provided to the Grid client have to cover the full life-cycle of legacy code deployment, execution and administration.
  • To minimise the time and effort required to upgrade and migrate GEMLCA onto new platforms. Given the current dynamic evolution of Grid systems and middleware solutions this requirement is particularly crucial (See OGF Gin Interoperability Now - GIN- initiative).
  • To help Grid system administrators by providing a flexible architecture that can be easily deployed on several sites with minimum effort.
