ExecutionProviders¶
An execution provider is basically an adapter to various types of execution resources. The providers abstract away the interfaces provided by various systems to request, monitor, and cancel computate resources.

Channels¶
For certain resources such as campus clusters or supercomputers at research laboratories, resource requirements may require authentication. For instance some resources may allow access to their job schedulers from only their login-nodes which require you to authenticate on through SSH, GSI-SSH and sometimes even require two factor authentication. Channels are simple abstractions that enable the ExecutionProvider component to talk to the resource managers of compute facilities. The simplest Channel, LocalChannel simply executes commands locally on a shell, while the SshChannel authenticates you to remote systems.

Launchers¶
Launchers are basically wrappers for user submitted scripts as they are submitted to a specific execution resource.
