FAQ FOR Virtual Appliance Catalogue (AppDB) SUPPORT UNIT
Responsible Unit: Virtual Appliance Catalogue (AppDB)
Helpdesk: GGUS (Operations Helpdesk by TPM)
What is the purpose of the Virtual Appliance Catalogue (AppDB) Support?
The EGI Applications Database stores information about tailor-made computing tools for scientists to use, and about the programmers and scientists who developed them. The applications and tools filed in AppDB are finished products, ready to be used on the European Distributed Computing Infrastructure (DCI). Storing pre-made applications means that scientists don't have to spend research time developing their own software. Thus, by storing pre-made applications and tools, AppDB aims to avoid duplication of effort across the DCI user communities, and to inspire scientists less familiar with programming into using the European Distributed Computing Infrastructure.
