- Workflows: Write complex, auto-documenting workflows in python, linked to arbitrary executables on local and remote computers. The event-based workflow engine supports tens of thousands of processes per hour with full checkpointing.
- Data provenance: Automatically track inputs, outputs & metadata of all calculations in a provenance graph for full reproducibility. Perform fast queries on graphs containing millions of nodes.
- HPC interface: Move your calculations to a different computer by changing one line of code. AiiDA is compatible with schedulers like SLURM, PBS Pro, torque, SGE or LSF out of the box.
- Plugin interface: Extend AiiDA with plugins for new simulation codes (input generation & parsing), data types, schedulers, transport modes and more.
- Open Science: Export subsets of your provenance graph and share them with peers or make them available online for everyone on the Materials Cloud.
- Open source: AiiDA is released under the MIT open source license
