Abstract
Globus Nexus is a flexible and powerful Platform-as-a-Service to which developers can outsource identity, group, and profile management needs. By providing these frequently important but always challenging capabilities as a service, accessible over the network, Globus Nexus streamlines web application development and makes it easy for individuals, teams, and institutions to create collaborative web applications such as science gateways for the science community. We introduce the capabilities of this platform and review representative applications.Keywords
