medical compute... in the cloud
definite need for data mobility and centralization...
with compute being "free" to process data where-ever it might naturally collect...
CHRIS...
CHRIS is a bio-medical data workflow manage that allows easy and intuitive collection, analysis, and sharing of data between parties.
many data sources... many compute sources...
via here
connect data here
to here...
and compute!
overview / goals
how do I run this on the cloud?
how do I run this on "someone else's computer"?
system topology
Main web server local data repository
remote compute nodes
data source (e.g. in hospital PACS)

BU partnership
Boston University Computer Science
Mentoring students on Cloud computing
Academic partner on the MOC
RedHat partnership
RedHat is active partner developing CHRIS infrastructure to the MOC
CHRIS as platform to help foster community and opensource development in the cloud using this paradigm
RedHat interested in helping use CHRIS to be a platform for "hack-a-thons" based on openswift, kubernetes, etc.
