Issue DM-6270: Review of Workflow Systems
Review different workflows and write a final comparison report. The plan is to look at up to 8 workflows. Current list of workflows: - pegasus, HTCondor - panda - swift - ... Each review should take around 3 days. The goal is to review the workflows systems with: - longevity, how long has the system been around, what is the funding? - use cases, who is using it? - scale, how large of a workflow has it used? - code, is the code open, how is the developer community, does it have python bindings? - GUI, does it have some easy way to monitor the workflow? - can we generate workflows programmatically? - what clusters are supported? Ideally we should also try and get it up and running and maybe even generate a dummy workflow. Discussion could be how we can prototype DRP and use that as a use case.
