What is VMOps Dashboard ?
The VMOps Dashboard is a Graphical User Interface (GUI) that allows authorized users to perform basic VM management operations in FedCloud. As it is highly integrated in the EGI Application Database (AppDB), users can directly instantiate scientific appliances from the AppDB catalogue.
