Hi Slurm community,

Slurm-web is an open source web interface for Slurm workload manager : 
http://rackslab.github.io/slurm-web/

The project was born in 2015(*), it was originally funded by EDF [2] (huge 
thanks to them!) and it reached a nice and unique feature set with versions 
2.x. Unfortunately, the software has suffered during the last years from 
lowered maintenance and investment.

Today, Slurm-web is being endorsed by Rackslab[3], a small company focused on 
development of open source solutions for HPC operations, which becomes its new 
official maintainer. A new ambitious roadmap has been defined with long-term 
vision about this project, starting with version 3.0 coming later this year.

In addition to existing Slurm-web feature set, the following new features are 
planned:

- Near real-time updates of the dashboard
- Accounting reports and vizualisation on past jobs
- Built-in metrics about jobs and scheduling
- Job submission and inspection
- Vastly improved Gantt view
- GPGPU support
- QOS, associations and reservations management
- Native RPM/deb packages and containers for easy deployment on most Linux 
distributions

The software architecture will be reworked with modern established 
technologies, it will notably be based on reference slurmrestd REST API. The 
source code will remain free, published under GPLv3, in conformity with 
Rackslab commitment for free software community.

Our goal is clearly to build the reference open source web interface for all 
users of Slurm based HPC clusters.

More details about the roadmap has been published in project discussions on 
Github: https://github.com/rackslab/slurm-web/discussions/235

You are more than welcome to discuss about it there, ask questions and give 
comments!

Best regards,
