Moab Web Services Overview

Moab Web Services (MWS) is a component of Adaptive Computing Suites that enables programmatic interaction with Moab Workload Manager via a RESTful interface. MWS lets you create and interact with Moab objects and properties such as jobs, nodes, virtual machines, and reservations. MWS is the preferred method for those wishing to create custom user interfaces for Moab and is the primary method by which Moab Viewpoint communicates with Moab.

MWS communicates with the Moab Workload Manager (Moab) server using the same wire protocol as the Moab command-line interface. By publishing a standard interface into Moab's intelligence, MWS significantly reduces the amount of work required to integrate Moab into your solution.

This documentation is intended for developers performing such integrations. If you are a Moab administrator, and for conceptual information about Moab, see Moab Workload Manager Overview.
