Scalable Workflow Management With Covalent

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | Researchers in data science, physics, chemistry, and many other domains are leveraging distributed compute resources for modeling and analysis. Consequentially their labs have struggled with the additional cost of managing these resources and ensuring data integrity in transport. A new open source platform called Covalent aims to solve this problem by automating workflow management through a simple SDK and a central UI. This talk will provide an introduction to Covalent and a demo of using the tool to run and visualize a workflow.
