Globus Endpoints exist for the cluster systems (Beluga, Cedar, Graham, Niagara etc.) but not for Cloud VMs. The reason for this is that there isn't a singular storage for each VM so we can't create a single endpoint for everyone.

Server is designed for headless (command line only, no gui) installations and has some additional features I don't think you would use (such as ability to add multiple servers to the endpoint).
