        Feedback for the poster presented in EGI2022 about our work to include EGI as one of the computing facilities in ESAP

         

        Working on ESAP frontend to include an option for EGI as a computing facility and the binderHub @IAA-CSIC

         

         

      • CTAO 1m

        After a couple of coding sprints with Klaas:

        CTADIRAC and Async worker are playing nice together. Able to submit & query jobs

         

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kAskIWFuFk

         

        API and GUI branches merged. Worker branch to be merged soon.

         

        In addition to what is shown in the video we are now able to download user specified containers and submit them. 

         

        Pushing towards a real world example.

        Here are the progress: we have setup a staging TAP server for the LIGO-Virgo collaboration that contains the  confidently detected events, in one hand, and the sub-threshold pipeline triggers on the other one. While we're waiting for the production server, I will work on adding an EGO/Virgo entry point to ESAP by next week, if you're ok with that.

        OSSR coordination

        • Finalizing onboarding to OSSR, hoping for ESAP as contributed repositories for the OSSR
          • can reduce onboarding procedure (e.g. skipping talk and referring to one of the ESAP talks at a larger ESCAPE event instead) - although a short look at the repo would be great
        • first step: registration at https://forms.gle/dLGjvEQ9BHfSQkcz7

        Work on api and web application to be integrated in ESAP to access EGI resources. Temporary repositories:

        https://github.com/bertocco/ESCAPE-VM-worker

        https://github.com/bertocco/ESCAPE-VM-worker-gui

        Command line api completed. "Create Server" and "Load Access key" on web app completed. 

        Video-emo will follow ASAP

        Our JupyterHub service has been accepted into Surfnet's SURFconext single sign on (SSO) authentication service. Joining SURFConect is a prerequisite to get access to eduGAIN.
         

        We are now setting up a SATOSA proxy to sit between our KeyCloak instance and SURFConext, this proxy can later

        be extended to handle eduGAIN.
