What SLURM CLI-API Proxy can do for you

Application examples of this tool in the biomedical domain would include the Galaxy Pulsar server that forwards jobs to an HPC backend through SLURM. Another key use case for this tool is Arvados, an open-source platform designed for managing and processing large biomedical data. In general, anywhere where a setup assumes the SLURM CLI to be available on a host, the SLURM CLI-API Proxy could help to offload job processing to a more powerful system.
