Users are provided with a dashboard that allows easy management of resources allocated to them. The COARE Science Cloud Dashboard is OpenStack’s web-based user interface that contains multiple tabs (Compute, Network, Object Store, Settings) which enables users to fully utilize the COARE Science Cloud service.

Science Cloud users are automatically part of a Project on OpenStack, a group of one or more users based on their organization, department, project, and/or research.
