Abstract

The Scientific Platform for the Cloud (SPC) presents a framework to support the rapid design and deployment of scientific applications (apps) in the cloud. It provides common infrastructure for running typical IXP (Input-execute-Plot) style apps, including: a web interface, post-processing and plotting capabilities, job scheduling, real-time monitoring of running jobs, and case manager. In this paper we (1) describe the design of the system architecture, (2) evaluate its applicability to a scientific workload, and (3) present a number of case studies which represent a wide variety of scientific applications including Population Genetics, Geophysics, Turbulence Physics, DNA analysis, and Big Data.
