Problem
HPC tools are primarily command line Hard to remember syntax to accomplish
things Not everyone knows Unix Difficult for applications outside HPC to
access resources Application Programming Interface for
developers to interact with HPC resources
![Page 3: EzHPC ERDC, ITL ezHPC Workshop April 23, 2008. Problem HPC tools are primarily command line Hard to remember syntax to accomplish things Not everyone](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649ec05503460f94bcb733/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Our Solution
Create a web-enabled front end for accessing the HPC
Make the interface “windows-like” for ease of use
Create a web based API to allow for programming interaction with the HPC

Timeline
A spin off from the CHSSI EQM-4 Integration effort started in 2004
Started ezHPC in fall 2004 Final security approval for ezHPC
architecture in fall 2005 Version 1 released March 2006 – ERDC only Version 2 to be released in 2008

What is ezHPC?
Wanted to provide an easy to access application for interacting with the HPC systems
Web-based solution with no install Access from any web browser, from any
Internet location
