Topic:
Open Capacity for Open Science: The Open Science Pool (OSPool) and OSG Services
Speaker:
Christina Koch, Research Computing Facilitator, Center for High Throughput Computing, University of Wisconsin – Madison
Abstract:
The OSG Consortium builds and operates a set of pools of shared computing and data capacity for distributed high-throughput computing (dHTC). The flagship effort, the Open Science Pool (OSPool), connects about 4 dozen institutions in any given month, benefits 90 universities and labs every year, and executes about a million jobs per day. The OSPool is accessible to any US-based academic researcher and is accompanied by additional OSG Services, including the support of a Research Computing Facilitation team. Join this call to learn about the computing capacity of the OSPool, potential ways to partner with OSG Services, and lessons learned from the facilitation team.
