WebMDS is a web-based tool for browsing XML-based information (such as resource properties) about Grid services. WebMDS works by transforming the raw XML information published by the IndexServices running at all the ARCS sites into a human-readable format. This interface will show you the different webmds views of all the compute and data resources managed by the APAC National Facility and the MARCS (Members of ARCS) sites.

The central Index Service is hosted at SAPAC and UQ and can be accessed through this link https://mds.arcs.org.au:8443/wsrf/services/DefaultIndexService.
