During this hands-on tutorial, students will learn how to integrate Globus data management capabilities into their own applications and workflows, using the Globus REST APIs and Python SDK.
Workflow tools help to shape complex analyses into efficient, reproducible programs that can be run on your local machine, on a cluster such as RMACC Summit, or even on national computing resources like the Open Science Grid (OSG). Some of these tools are container-friendly, and provide a great way to improve the reproducibility of your research. During this hands-on session we will use RMACC Summit to build workflows with two workflow tools: Snakemake and Nextflow.
A container is an image that includes everything needed to run one or more pieces of software: the code itself, an operating system environment and its associated tools and libraries, and other desired customizations. Containers are “stand-alone”, enabling workflows to be easily packaged and shared across platforms. This hands-on tutorial will provide an introduction to containers, the basics of running Docker and Singularity containers on RMACC Summit, and examples of building Singularity containers from recipe files.
