Description

AWS ParallelCluster is a free, open-source tool designed for efficient management and deployment of High-Performance Computing (HPC) clusters within the AWS environment. It streamlines the configuration of essential components such as compute nodes, shared filesystems, and job schedulers, while accommodating various instance types and job submission queues. Users have the flexibility to engage with ParallelCluster using a graphical user interface, command-line interface, or API, which allows for customizable cluster setups and oversight. The tool also works seamlessly with job schedulers like AWS Batch and Slurm, making it easier to transition existing HPC workloads to the cloud with minimal adjustments. Users incur no additional costs for the tool itself, only paying for the AWS resources their applications utilize. With AWS ParallelCluster, users can effectively manage their computing needs through a straightforward text file that allows for the modeling, provisioning, and dynamic scaling of necessary resources in a secure and automated fashion. This ease of use significantly enhances productivity and optimizes resource allocation for various computational tasks.

Description

Rocks is an open-source Linux distribution designed for building computational clusters, grid endpoints, and visualization tiled-display walls with ease for end users. Since its inception in May 2000, the Rocks team has worked to simplify the deployment and management of clusters, focusing on making them easy to deploy, manage, upgrade, and scale effectively. The most recent version, Rocks 7.0, also known as Manzanita, is exclusively a 64-bit release based on CentOS 7.4, incorporating all updates as of December 1, 2017. This distribution comes with a variety of tools, including the Message Passing Interface (MPI), which are essential for converting a collection of computers into a functional cluster. Users can customize their installations by incorporating additional software packages during the installation process using specially provided CDs. Moreover, recent security vulnerabilities known as Spectre and Meltdown impact nearly all hardware, and appropriate mitigations are implemented through operating system updates to enhance security. As a result, Rocks not only facilitates the creation of clusters but also ensures that they remain secure and up-to-date with the latest patches and enhancements.
