The Web Services Grid Resource Allocation and Management (GRAM4) component comprises a set of WSRF-compliant Web services to locate, submit, monitor, and cancel jobs on Grid computing resources. GRAM4 is not a job scheduler, but rather a set of services and clients for communicating with a range of different batch/cluster job schedulers using a common protocol. GRAM4 is meant to address a range of jobs where reliable operation, stateful monitoring, credential management, and file staging are important.
The GRAM server is typically deployed in conjunction with the Delegation and RFT services to address data staging, delegation of proxy credentials, and computation monitoring and management in an integrated manner.
