IOOS' Coastal Modeling Cloud Sandbox provides a framework for developing, modifying and running models in the cloud. It provides repeatable configurations, model code and required libraries, input data and analysis of model outputs. The Sandbox supports not only the development of services and models, but also Cloud HPC to run and validate models.
Related to better defining the workflow for Cloud Sandbox end users to access the platform, we discussed in meetings the idea of separating out the Terraform and deployment or infrastructure-related code into a separate repo.
This would allow new users to have a simplified version of the user-facing code deployed automatically to their home directories when they log into the Sandbox environment.
TBD: what portions of this repo belong in a new Terraform/infrastructure repo and what belongs in user home environments.
