Scalable Systems Laboratory
Together with the OSG-LHC, the Scalable Systems Laboratory (SSL) is designed to be the primary integration path to deliver the output of IRIS-HEP R&D activities into the distributed and scientific production infrastructure of the experiments. SSL hardware resources can be accessed through a gateway for testing, training and other activities.
