Since 2017, the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) has been working towards enabling token-based authentication and authorization throughout its entire middleware stack. Following the initial publication of the WLCG Token Schema v1.0 in 2019, OAuth2.0 token workflows have been integrated across grid middleware. [...]

WLCG Token Usage and Discovery
/ Bockelman, Brian (Morgridge Inst. Res., Madison) ; Ceccanti, Andrea (INFN, Italy) ; Dack, Thomas (Daresbury) ; Dykstra, Dave (Fermilab) ; Litmaath, Maarten (CERN) ; Sallé, Mischa (Nikhef, Amsterdam) ; Short, Hannah (CERN)
Since 2017, the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) has been working towards enabling token based authentication and authorisation throughout its entire middleware stack. Following the publication of the WLCG Common JSON Web Token (JWT) Schema v1.0 [1] in 2019, middleware developers have been able to enhance their services to consume and validate the JWT-based [2] OAuth2.0 [3] tokens and process the authorization information they convey.

The SIMPLE Framework for deploying containerized grid services
/ Sharma, Mayank (CERN) ; Junior, Eraldo Silva (Rio de Janeiro, CBPF) ; Vasilev, Boris Iliev (Manchester U.) ; Litmaath, Maarten (CERN) ; Santana, Renato (Rio de Janeiro, CBPF)
The Worldwide LHC Computing Grid (WLCG) currently has about 170 sites. In order to support WLCG workloads, each site has to deploy and maintain a number of possibly complex grid services. [...]

WLCG Authorisation from X.509 to Tokens
/ Bockelman, Brian (Unlisted, US) ; Ceccanti, Andrea (INFN, Italy) ; Collier, Ian (Daresbury) ; Cornwall, Linda (Daresbury) ; Dack, Thomas (Daresbury) ; Guenther, Jaroslav (CERN) ; Lassnig, Mario (CERN) ; Litmaath, Maarten (CERN) ; Millar, Paul (DESY) ; Sallé, Mischa (Nikhef, Amsterdam) et al.
The WLCG Authorisation Working Group was formed in July 2017 with the objective to understand and meet the needs of a future-looking Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructure (AAI) for WLCG experiments. Much has changed since the early 2000s when X.509 certificates presented the most suitable choice for authorisation within the grid; progress in token based authorisation and identity federation has provided an interesting alternative with notable advantages in usability and compatibility with external (commercial) partners.

Lightweight WLCG sites : The SIMPLE Grid Framework
/ Sharma, Mayank (CERN) ; Litmaath, Maarten (CERN) ; Silva Junior, Eraldo (Rio de Janeiro, CBPF) ; Santana, Renato (Rio de Janeiro, CBPF)
This article describes a new framework, called SIMPLE, for settingup and maintaining classic WLCG sites with minimal operational efforts and insights needed into the WLCG middleware. The framework provides a single common interface to install and configure any of its supported grid services, such as Compute Elements, Batch Systems, Worker Nodes and miscellaneous middleware packages.

Grid services in a box: container management in ALICE
/ Storetvedt, Maxim (HVL, Norway) ; Litmaath, Maarten (CERN) ; Betev, Latchezar (CERN) ; Helstrup, Håvard (HVL, Norway) ; Fanebust Hetland, Kristin (HVL, Norway) ; Kileng, Bjarte (HVL, Norway)
Virtualization and containers are established tools for providing simplified deployment, elasticity and workflow isolation. These benefits are especially advantageous in containers, which dispense with the resource overhead associated with virtual machines in cases where virtualization of the full hardware stack is not considered necessary.
