The DARE platform is designed to live in-between user applications and the underlying com- puting resources. It is built on top of containerisation as well as parallelisation technologies, e.g., Kubernetes and MPI. Interfacing with client systems and end-users is achieved via REST- ful APIs. The execution of scientific workflows is achieved via a Workflows-as-a-service layer, which can handle workflows described in either the dispel4py Python library (Filgueira, Krause, Atkinson, Klampanos, & Moreno, 2017), or in the Common Workflow Language (CWL) (Am- stutz et al., 2016).
