SUMMARY:The Story of Spin:  Five Years Supporting Science with Container-B
 ased Services at NERSC
DESCRIPTION:Stefan Lasiewski and Cory Snavely (National Energy Research Sc
 ientific Computing Center (NERSC))\n\nOriginally launched in 2018, Spin is
  a user-facing, container-based platform designed for NERSC users to deplo
 y their own science gateways, workflow managers, API endpoints, databases,
  and other network services to support their scientific projects. Spin use
 rs enjoy the ease of use and rapid deployment typical of cloud technologie
 s combined with close proximity to large-scale compute and storage resourc
 es; NERSC administrators benefit from managing a common, consolidated serv
 ice platform with a reduced-privilege container runtime environment.\n\nIn
  just five years, Spin has evolved into an important platform for web serv
 ices and complex scientific workflows, supporting hundreds of users in ove
 r 80 NERSC projects. Along this journey, Spin has undergone a major redepl
 oyment to a Kubernetes-based back end, a complete overhaul of its security
  policy subsystems, a full hardware and storage refresh, and numerous soft
 ware upgrades.\n\nIn this quick talk intended to "spin off" deeper convers
 ations with both users and facilities, we’ll highlight key milestones and 
 lessons learned in the development of Spin, and we'll share plans for the 
 future, including upgraded storage, improved security automation, and an e
 xpansion of Spin into the HPC platform itself.\n\nRegistration Category: W
 orkshop Reg Pass\n\nSession Chairs: Richard Shane Canon (Lawrence Berkeley
  National Laboratory (LBNL)); Alberto Madonna (ETH Zürich, Swiss National 
 Supercomputing Centre (CSCS)); Laurie A. Stephey (Lawrence Berkeley Nation
 al Laboratory (LBNL), National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center
  (NERSC)); and Andrew Younge (Sandia National Laboratories)\n\n
