Cloud Resource Allocation Management System (CRAMS) - Data Dashboard release

The Monash University-eResearch Centre developed Cloud Resource Allocation Management System (CRAMS) is for resource allocation, instantiation and to report resource utilisation across Research Data Storage, High Performance Computing Platform (HPC) and Research Computing Cloud. CRAMS provides an effective self service mechanism for researchers and research facilities to request cloud resources, monitor usage and manage own allocations. CRAMS further enables faster processing of resource allocation requests and provisioning of resources to end users. CRAMS reporting will enable effective strategic decisions on resource planning across Monash Research Data Storage, High Performance Computing Platform and Research Computing Cloud to address research needs better.莫纳什大学电子研究中心（Monash University-eResearch Centre）开发的云资源分配管理系统（Cloud Resource Allocation Management System，缩写CRAMS），可覆盖研究数据存储、高性能计算平台（High Performance Computing Platform，缩写HPC）与研究计算云三大场景，实现资源分配、实例化及资源使用情况上报功能。该系统为科研人员与研究机构提供了高效的自助服务机制，支持其申请云资源、监控资源使用情况并管理自身的资源分配额度。此外，CRAMS可加快资源分配申请的处理流程，并快速为终端用户完成资源部署。依托CRAMS的上报功能，可辅助莫纳什大学针对研究数据存储、高性能计算平台及研究计算云开展资源规划相关的科学战略决策，从而更好地适配科研需求。
