Monitoring in BigHPC

Monitoring is a crucial aspect in the optimization of performance and efficiency of any given system, more so in High-Performance Computing (HPC) which are highly complex. The BigHPC monitoring solution aims to provide users visibility into their job’s resource utilisation and to empower sysadmins to optimally allocate resources for enhanced Read more…

Protecting Parallel File Systems from Harm

Modern supercomputers are establishing a new era in High-Performance Computing (HPC), providing unprecedented compute power that enables large-scale parallel applications to run at massive scale. However, contrary to long-lived assumptions about HPC workloads, where applications were compute-bound and write-dominated (such as scientific simulations), modern applications like Deep Learning training are Read more…

Convergence of HPC, AI and Big Data@MACC

HPC services are no longer solely targeted at traditional HPC applications, highly parallel modeling and simulation tasks. Indeed, the computational power offered by theses services is now being used to support data-centric Big Data and Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications. By combining both types of computational paradigms, HPC infrastructures will be Read more…
