About:
ecFlow UI is a graphical user interface for the ecFlow workflow management system. It provides a visual representation of task dependencies and status, allowing users to monitor and control complex scientific workflows. This tool is essential for managing large-scale data processing and forecasting systems used in meteorology.
Key Features:
  • Real-time monitoring of workflow status and task progression
  • Interactive tree and time-based visualization of job dependencies
  • Ability to edit, suspend, and restart workflows dynamically
  • Client-server architecture for remote system management
Use Cases:
  • Monitoring weather forecast model execution pipelines
  • Managing complex climate data processing workflows
  • Debugging and visualizing dependencies in scientific computing tasks
Alternatives:
  • Cylc – Cylc is a modern workflow scheduler often used with Rose, focusing on cycling systems, whereas ecFlow is heavily used in operational meteorology.
  • Apache Airflow – Airflow is a general-purpose workflow orchestrator defined in Python, while ecFlow uses a dedicated definition syntax and is optimized for HPC environments.
