| ===== |
| Apache Airavata, a software framework to executing and managing computational jobs on |
| distributed computing resources including local clusters, supercomputers, national grids, |
| academic and commercial clouds. Airavata builds on general concepts of service oriented computing, |
| distributed messaging, and workflow composition and orchestration. Airavata bundles a server package, |
| a client API to access the server and a general purpose GUI XBaya as a application registration, workflow |
| construction execution and monitoring. XBaya GUI also provides capabilities to access the workflow |
| produced data. |

| Available Binary Distributions |
| ============================== |
| |
| Server Distributions |
| -------------------- |
| * Airavata Server |
| The Airavata Server binary distribution allows you to run a standalone Airavata Server which includes all the airavata services |
| shipped with a default derby database as the backend registry. For stable purposes, a mysql configuration is recommended. |
| |
| * Airavata Server Web Application |
| This is similar package as the Airavata Server but is distributed as the server Web Application archive. |
| This war is compatible with Apache Tomcat application server. The war bundles all airavata services |
| enabled by defualt to startup a derby database as the backend registry. For stable purposes, a mysql configuration is recommended. |
| |
| Client Distributions |
| -------------------- |
| * Airavata XBaya |
| The Airavata XBaya distribution is a client GUI application with features to register applications as web services, construct workflows, |
| execute and monitor workflows and browse the generated results from the airavata registry. |
| |
| * Airavata Client |
| The Airavata Client distribution is a set of libraries and configurations files that allow a 3rd party application to programatically |
| access Airavata functionality through Airavata API. |
| |
| How to test and run samples |
| =========================== |
| * If you built Airavata from source, and if you see "BUILD SUCCESS", then the test cases should have passes. |
| * The test cases are beyond unit level, they startup embedded services and run through basic workflow use cases. |
| * To walk through Airavata features, follow "Airavata in Five Minutes" tutorial at http://airavata.apache.org/documentation/tutorials/airavata-in-5-minutes.html. |
| * For intermediate level Airavata features, follow "Airavata in Ten Minutes" tutorial at http://airavata.apache.org/documentation/tutorials/airavata-in-5-minutes.html. |
| * For advanced use cases, please contact mailing lists - http://airavata.apache.org/community/mailing-lists.html |
