Multi-Site Workflow Orchestration in the DAFAB Project

DAFAB will design and implement a workflow orchestration system that enhances multi-site application deployment and data discovery. The workflow system will enable applications to express their computations as a graph and declare the data needed at each step in a high-level query language. Workflows will then execute across multiple sites, whether cloud-based (Kubernetes) or high-performance computing (Slurm) environments. By enabling transparent data access and seamless execution of workflow stages, this system shifts the burden of application deployment and data discovery to the platform itself, significantly accelerating development timelines.
