SUMMARY:Globus Compute Virtual Webinar Series - Federated Function as a Service for Research Cyberinfrastructure
DESCRIPTION:Growing data volumes\, new computing paradigms\, and increasing hardware heterogeneity are driving the need to distribute computational tasks across a continuum of computing resources. The Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) paradigm pioneered by cloud providers offers a potential solution. We will provide an overview of Globus Compute\, a secure\, reliable federated FaaS platform designed for research computing. We will describe the benefits to researchers (e.g.\, accessibility\, scalability) and to administrators (e.g.\, reduced support burden\, energy efficiency) enabled by distributed execution. We will also review a number of common use cases for the service. \n\n\n\nPre-requisites: Some knowledge of GlobusTarget Audience: Researchers\, IT professionals\, Developers \n\n\n\nAbout the Presenter: Vas is the “customer guy” at Globus\, the de facto standard platform for research data management\, developed and operated by the University of Chicago. He is also a lecturer in the Masters Program in Computer Science at the University\, where he teaches courses on Cloud Computing and Product Management. Vas has over 30 years of experience in operational and consulting roles\, spanning strategy\, marketing and technology\, and was instrumental in bringing many emerging technologies as products to market. He consults with both global enterprises and early stage technology startups on product management and go-to-market strategy.
