🤔 Problem

We should offer users the option of connecting to a RunAI cluster and launching workloads there.

Main Constraints

• Only use the API - most likely we will have use just the run.ai api. But we should confirm this
• We need to get integration oauth2 client so that users can log into runai and then launch sessions - similar to cscs
• We have 2 potential deployments we can use:
  • The one from the SDSC
  • There is another one at EPFL which is even larger than the one the SDSC runs

One of the big questions this explorations should ideally answer is that can we use the run ai API + an oauth integration to launch sessions on run ai simlarly to how we have done it on CSCS. Ideally by reusing most of the same components we used for CSCS.

🎯 Solution

From a discussion with Christian:

• launches the same workspace or training job from the command line, but it is “disposable”, i.e. it does not actually stay around after he is done.
