Xenon is a middleware abstraction library. It provides a simple programming interface to various pieces of software that can be used to access distributed compute and storage resources.
Xenon is developed by the Netherlands eScience Center as a support library for our projects. Several projects develop end-user applications that require access to distributed compute and storage resources. Xenon provides a simple API to those resources, allowing those applications to be developed more rapidly. The experience gained during end-user application development is used to improve the Xenon API and implementation.
