Compute Web App
(ex- SoQut Imaging 2017)
Compute Web App (or CWA) is a software designed for distributed computing of scientific data. Ideally, each CWA instance can handle a part of input data and thus CWA will be able to efficiently handle data sizes up to petabytes (1000 terabytes).
At the moment, a CWA instance can manage data processes locally running in parallel. One CWA instance is available as a demonstration: demo.soqut-imaging.fr!
CWA has been developed exclusively during spare-time and will be continued as is. It is now open source, so feel free to visit and contribute to this project.
Why SoQut Imaging? Read a bit of history…
Its main features:
- Fast and easy to deploy,
- Secured process parameters, data and results transfer,
- Simple RESTful API designed to:
- upload data,
- control and monitor processes and
- retrieve results,
- Simple and efficient web interface provided,
- Designed to run processes in parallel,
- Adapted to Cloud computing and to dedicated servers.

Prepare processes by interfacing them with CWA, develop a simple client application for uploading data and retrieve results and that’s it!
Data and results required to be kept in door? Great, just run it on a local High Performance Computer (HPC) as an “on premise” solution.
