New versions of WS-PGRADE/gUSE and the CloudBroker Platform provide extended cloud access for science gateways.

The Computer and Automation Research Institute, Hungarian Academy of Sciences (MTA SZTAKI), CloudBroker GmbH, and the SCIentific gateway Based User Support (SCI-BUS) project are happy to announce new versions of the two SCI-BUS base technologies, WS-PGRADE/gUSE and the CloudBroker Platform, which together considerably extend the cloud access for science gateways.

WS-PGRADE/gUSE is an open source framework to build community gateways based on Liferay. It provides scientific workflow management for application developers and end users, and supports various Distributed Computing Infrastructures (DCIs) including clusters, grids and clouds. For cloud access, it uses the CloudBroker Platform, an application store for offering and running compute-intensive applications on public and private cloud infrastructures. The platform widely automates resource and software handling, job execution as well as user accounting and billing, and can be accessed as a service both through the web as well as programmatically.
