Examples of CCP4 Cloud configurations. FE, Front End; NC, Number Cruncher; UI, User Interface with optional CC (client-side NC); Data, access to collected X-ray diffraction data sets and other data used for MX structure determination. Arrows denote http(s) connections. (a) Single-host configuration, suitable for an individual working without an internet connection. (b) A multi-user setup using a central host machine, suitable for small to medium-sized laboratories. (c) Fully distributed, multi-component setup with single point of access, suitable for large facilities and research centres; it can optionally allow data acquisition from external sources. (d) Fully distributed setup with multiple access points. Configurations (a) and (c) work out of the box using the CCP4 software suite installed on the user's machine [using the CCP4 Cloud setup at RAL Harwell in case (c)]. All configurations may be tailored to specific conditions and requirements and can be built on top of the CCP4 Cloud components that are included in the CCP4 software suite. See the discussion in the text.
