Using Flux

This section explains how one can start using Flux. Flux will help in executing tasks reliably and asynchronously.

Presently, Flux enables running tasks in "Managed Mode". This means that the task executions are carried out within the Flux Runtime (i.e the Flux JVM). In this mode, Flux Runtime is responsible for orchestration and execution of Tasks.

We also plan to support an "Isolated Mode", where users control the compute nodes and each compute node "pulls" tasks from the Flux Runtime and executes it in isolation. In this mode, the Flux runtime is responsible only for orchestration of tasks.
