Active activities/projects
The following are known and planned activities/project. If it's not on this list, we're not working on itprojects. We have committed resources to these projects are either 1) defining requirements/tasks in the backlog or 2) actively working on requirements/task in sprint. In other words, there should be tasks in JIRA for these projects now to meet the deadline.

The following are Labs Workbench planned features. This is what we've prioritized to work on outside of the above deadlines.
Emerging use cases:
We're seeing the following primary use cases for Workbench:
- Training/workshop platform (IASSIST, Phenome2017, PI4, Einstein Toolkit School, ThinkChicago)
- Open issues: filesystem performance and reliability (ETK); how to handle actual data processing (ThinkChicago, PI4); simplifying installation and scaling
- Interactive analysis/development environments for remote data (TERRA-REF, NIB)
- Open issues: integration with HPC environments (how to handle real data processing); hosting data (NIB mongo/raw); hosting "apps" developed around the data; integrating with core infrastructure (SSO, permissions, etc); sharing data
- Platform for sharing/publishing/(preserving) tools (workbench beta)
Planned features
Based on this, we've prioritized the following features:
- Workbench to HPC
- Package and launch jobs on HPC systems from within workbench
- Exploring integration with Agave
- Workbench to Cloud
- Export application configuration to run on Docker-enabled cloud infrastructure (e.g., docker compose)
- Stability/scalability
- Failover/backups
- Improved deployment process
- Failover/backups
- Deploy-tools replacement/packaging for install
- Commercial cloud support/storage generalization
- Improved scaling/minimal cluster configuration – migration path from single node to multinode?
- Authentication
- Security analysis for Docker containers
- Modular authentication for integration with different systems
- OIDC/Oauth support
- Possible integration with CILogon or Globus Auth
- Project-specific catalogs and views
- Security analysis for Docker containers
