For molecular modelers, running complex computations in the cloud can be a game-changer. However, managing these computations—tracking progress, accessing results, and keeping everything organized—can quickly become overwhelming. The SAMSON Job Manager provides a clean and efficient way to address this challenge, improving productivity while keeping your projects under control.
Effortless Job Management
The Job Manager in SAMSON is designed to manage all your cloud computations effectively. Once a job is launched in the cloud, you can use the Job Manager to:
- Create and execute jobs in the cloud (start, pause, or stop them).
- Monitor the progress of active computations.
- Retrieve and download results directly into SAMSON when they are ready.
This organized approach means you can focus on analyzing your results rather than worrying about managing files or workflows.
A Closer Look at Job Details
Clicking on a job in the Job Manager reveals detailed information about that computation on the right-hand side. From here, you can:
- Edit the job name and add notes, which will sync with your SAMSON Connect account.
- Rapidly download all job files by double-clicking the job.
The structure and accessibility of this feature help ensure that nothing gets lost in the process, saving you valuable time.
Quick Access with Context Menus
The Job Manager also includes a convenient Context Menu. This feature simplifies access to:
- Local files (those already downloaded).
- Remote files stored in the cloud.
- A job’s view on SAMSON Connect, where you can share or collaborate on computations.
Perfect for Collaboration
If you work within a team, SAMSON Cloud Services make it easy to share and collaborate on computational jobs. You can control who has access to your results and ensure smooth workflows with your colleagues. For example, results from simulations using tools like AlphaFold or GROMACS can be securely shared through SAMSON Connect.
