ProActive Grids & Clouds
ProActive Grids & Clouds aggregates heterogeneous resources such as Desktop Computers, Clusters or Cloud Virtual Machines. This Resource Manager works in collaboration with ProActive Scheduler to find appropriate resources for a given task or job. The resources can be acquired by several strategies:
- from a SSH connection.
- from daemon programs already running on the targeted resource (Agents).
- from Cloud Resources providers such as Amazon EC2, Microsoft Azure.
The resource selection is based on selection scripts written in various scripting languages (Javascript, Python, Ruby, etc...).

Holds up each summer day and shakes
It out suspiciously, lest swarms
Of grape-dark clouds are lurking there....”
