Description
Using web applications in a Software As A Service approach is increasingly becoming an important route for science facilities to provide tools to their users.
Diamond has developed two such applications; the XAS data repository and web-CONEXS.
The XAS data repository is a database of XAS data collected on standard or well characterized compounds, facilitating the storage and retrieval of this data, both through the user interface and a REST API.
Web-conex is a simulation as a service portal, developed as part of the EPSRC funded COllaborative NEtwork for X-ray Spectroscopy (CONEXS) and offers a simplified interface for launching simulations on the STFC’s IRIS HPC infrastructure.
This presentation will give a brief overview of these two applications and then focus common issues, such as web technologies, authentication and authorization, and deployment and how they are addressed at Diamond.
