### What is the Open Science Grid?
### What is OSG?
The [Open Science Grid](http://opensciencegrid.org) advances
[OSG](http://opensciencegrid.org) advances
science through open distributed computing. The OSG is a
science through open distributed computing and gives users access to a pool of resources referred as [OSPool](https://osg-htc.org/services/open_science_pool.html). Any researcher performing Open Science in the US can become an OSPool user. The OSPool provides its users with fair-share access (no allocation needed!) to processing and storage capacity contributed by university campuses, government-supported supercomputing institutions and research collaborations. Using state-of-the-art distributed computing technologies the OSPool is designed to support High Throughput workloads that consist of large ensembles of independent computations.
multi-disciplinary partnership to federate local, regional, community
and national cyber infrastructures to meet the needs of research and
academic communities at all scales. HCC participates in the OSG as a
resource provider and a resource user. We provide HCC users with a
gateway to running jobs on the OSG.
