Summary: Add single job support as a first class simple Apache
Airavata Execution
Key: AIRAVATA-964
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRAVATA-964
Project: Airavata
Issue Type: Epic
Components: Airavata Client, GFac
Reporter: Suresh Marru
Currently Airavata supports single jobs by wrapping it as a single node task
within a workflow. This wrapping is justified if workflow is the predominant
use of Airavata and single application execution is a rare usage pattern. As
Airavata is getting more usage, the simple execution but for large number of
invocations and diverse applications is getting more widely used.
Providing a first class way of a simple application execution will reduce the
overhead in creating and managing workflows. But this takes away all the
orchestration capabilities provided by the Workflow Interpreter. This Epic is
to discuss a new component to Airavata which provides based job orchestration
while persisting the request state to registry so the application management
component (GFac) can be stateless and recover the job from a frequently
checkpointed state from the registry
