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.
