=========

Tethys includes Python modules that will allow you to provision and run computing jobs in distributed computing environments. Make use of the idle computing power that is available in your office by using `HTCondor <http://research.cs.wisc.edu/htcondor/>`_ via CondorPy. Alternatively, you can use TethysCluster to send jobs to be processed in the cloud using commercial services like `Amazon AWS <https://aws.amazon.com/free/cloud-computing-free-tier/?sc_channel=PS&sc_campaign=AWS_Free_Tier_2013_T&sc_country=US&sc_publisher=Google&sc_medium=b_test_cloud_computing_e-amazon_computing&sc_content=50999158962&sc_detail=Amazon%20computing&sc_category=aws_cloud_computing&sc_segment=cloud_computing&sc_matchtype=e&s_kwcid=AL!4422!3!50999158962!e!!g!!amazon%20computing&ef_id=U2k10QAAAbgQyF5m:20141124202406:s>`_ and `Microsoft Azure <https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/>`_.

CondorPy enables computing jobs to be created and submitted to a HTCondor computing pool.

HTCondor provides a way to make use of the idle computing power that is already available in your office. Alternatively, TethysCluster enables you to provision scalable computing resources in the cloud using commercial services like `Amazon AWS <https://aws.amazon.com/free/cloud-computing-free-tier/?sc_channel=PS&sc_campaign=AWS_Free_Tier_2013_T&sc_country=US&sc_publisher=Google&sc_medium=b_test_cloud_computing_e-amazon_computing&sc_content=50999158962&sc_detail=Amazon%20computing&sc_category=aws_cloud_computing&sc_segment=cloud_computing&sc_matchtype=e&s_kwcid=AL!4422!3!50999158962!e!!g!!amazon%20computing&ef_id=U2k10QAAAbgQyF5m:20141124202406:s>`_ and `Microsoft Azure <https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/>`_.
