Executive Summary

Work Package 3 of the EuroScienceGateway project is divided into 5 tasks, aimed at bringing into production (TRL9) the Pulsar Network , a distributed computing network that allows public Galaxy servers to offload jobs to remote computing clusters provided by project partners. Specifically, this deliverable describes the work done in tasks 3.1, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.5. The main objectives of WP3 are: 1) to simplify the deployment and management of new Pulsar and Galaxy endpoints (T3.1 and T3.5), to make Pulsar compatible with the GA4GH TES specifications (T3.2), and to deploy new Pulsar endpoints (T3.3)
