Globus Security

• Control access to shared services– Address autonomous management, e.g., different policy in

different work-groups

• Support multi-user collaborations– Federate through mutually trusted services– Local policy authorities rule

• Allow users and application communities to set up dynamic trust domains– Personal/VO collection of resources working together based

on trust of user/VO

GT4 Security• Public-key-based authentication • Extensible authorization framework based on Web

services standards– Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML)-based

authorization callout• As specified in GGF OGSA-Authz WG

– Integrated policy decision engine• eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML)

policy language, per-operation policies, pluggable

• Credential management service– MyProxy (One time password support)

• Community Authorization Service (CAS)• Standalone delegation service

Grid Computing 7Paul A. Farrell 2006

GT4’s Use of Security Standards

Supported, Supported, Fastest, but slow but insecure so default

Grid Computing 8Paul A. Farrell 2006

GT-XACML Integration

• eXtensible Access Control Markup Language– OASIS standard, open source implementations

• XACML: sophisticated policy language• Globus Toolkit ships with XACML runtime

– Included in every client and server built on GT– Turned-on through configuration

• … that can be called transparently from runtime and/or explicitly from application …

• … and we use the XACML-”model” for our Authz Processing Framework

Globus Toolkit: Execution Management

Grid Computing 23Paul A. Farrell 2006

Execution Management (GRAM)

• Globus Resource Allocation Manager (GRAM) – lowest level of Globus resource management architecture– For stateful job control

• Common WS interface to schedulers– Unix, Condor, LSF, PBS, SGE, …

• More generally: interface for process execution management– Lay down execution environment – Stage data to/from environment– Monitor & manage lifecycle– Signal important state changes to client– Kill it, clean up

Grid Computing 24Paul A. Farrell 2006

GT4 WS GRAM

• 2nd-generation WS implementation optimized for performance, flexibility, stability, scalability

• Changed to be WSRF compliant– There is no backward compatibility between 4.0 and 3.2

• Streamlined critical path– Use only what you need

• Flexible credential management– Credential cache & delegation service

• GridFTP & RFT used for data operations– Data staging & streaming output– Eliminates redundant GASS code

GRAM

• Client job invocation using GRAM– Uses set of WSDL documents and client interfaces for

submitting, monitoring, and terminating a job– Can use Resource Specification Language (RSL), marked

up in XML, to describe the job to be run e.g.• name of the executable,• the working directory, • input and output storage• queue to run in

• Can submit using command line or WDSL interface

Grid Computing 31Paul A. Farrell 2006

GRAM (ctd.)• WSDL Interface

– Uses ManagedJobFactory portType– Creates

• Managed Executable Job Resource (MEJR) to execute single process specified in RSL

• Managed Multi Job Resource (MMJR) to execute multi-jobs specified in RSL

– variants of the Managed Job service (MJS)• Input is initial termination time, Job ID, possible

subscription to notifications, specification of single or multiple jobs

• output is managed job EPR, and notification EPR• MJS will handle notifications and cleanup on

termination/destroy

Grid Computing 32Paul A. Farrell 2006

WS GRAM Performance

• Time to submit a basic GRAM job– Pre-WS GRAM: < 1 second– WS GRAM: 2 seconds

• Concurrent jobs– Pre-WS GRAM: 300 jobs– WS GRAM: 32,000 jobs

• Various studies are underway to test latest software

Monitoring and Discovery

• “Every service should be monitorable and discoverable using common mechanisms”– WSRF/WSN provides those mechanisms

• A common aggregator framework for collecting information from services, thus:– MDS-Index: Xpath queries, with caching– MDS-Trigger: perform action on condition– (MDS-Archiver: Xpath on historical data)

• Deep integration with Globus containers & services: every GT4 service is discoverable– GRAM, RFT, GridFTP, CAS, …

Index Server Performance

• As the MDS4 Index grows, query rate and response time both slow, although sublinearly

• Response time slows due to increasing data transfer size– Full Index is being returned– Response is re-built for every query

• Real question – how much over simple WS-N performance?

Information Providers

• GT4 information providers collect information from some system and make it accessible as WSRF resource properties

• Growing number of information providers– Ganglia, CluMon, Nagios– SGE, LSF, OpenPBS, PBSPro, Torque

• Many opportunities to build additional ones– E.g., network monitoring, storage systems, various sensors
