 - A distributed framework that supports execution and management of computational scientific applications and workflows in grid based systems, remote clusters and cloud based systems.
-- Airavata’s main focus is on submitting and managing application executions and workflows in grid based systems.
-- Airavata’s architecture is extensible to support for other underlying resources as well.
-- Traditional scientific applications provide a portal for users to submit and manage scientific applications which is called as science gateways.
-- Airavata can be used by scientific gateway developers as their middleware layer. They can directly call Airavata API in order to communicate with grid based system.
+- Primarily focused on submitting and managing application executions and workflows in grid based systems.
