The purpose of the GlideinWMS is to provide a simple way to access distributed computing resources, including Grid resources, institutional clusters, commercial clouds (AWS and GCE) and HPC resources. GlideinWMS is a Glidein Based WMS (Workload Management System) that works on top of HTCondor. Glideins, aka pilot jobs, are like placeholders, a mechanism by which one or more remote resources temporarily join a local HTCondor pool. The HTCondor system is used for scheduling and job control.
