HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING

DEPLOYMENT

Deployment for High-Performance Computing Solutions

Welcome to FORBMAX, where we redefine the landscape of High-Performance Computing (HPC) deployment. Our commitment is to make the transition to advanced computational power seamless, ensuring your HPC solutions are operational with minimal disruption.

Our Deployment Process

Customized Cluster Installation

At FORBMAX, we believe in a collaborative approach to crafting the ideal High Performance Computing (HPC) environment. Working closely with our customers, we generate a detailed profile of the desired and suitable hardware, allowing us to create an optimal cluster configuration tailored to specific needs.

Different simulation software has unique requirements—some perform best with fewer cores and higher clock frequencies, while others excel with a greater number of cores per node. Additionally, memory usage can vary significantly depending on the program and calculation model. It’s essential to evaluate whether AMD EPYC™ CPUs or Intel® Xeon® CPUs will provide the best performance for your specific applications.

When configuring your HPC cluster, we also consider several critical factors:

  • Storage Requirements: The amount of storage needed to support your workloads.
  • Redundancy: Ensuring the reliability of head nodes, storage nodes, and login nodes through appropriate redundancy measures.
  • Integration Options: The flexibility to bundle the head node, storage node, and login node into a single machine, with redundancy achieved through robust hardware components like drives, CPUs, and power supplies.

By focusing on these essential elements, FORBMAX delivers HPC solutions that are not only powerful but also efficient and tailored to your organization’s goals.

Hassle-Free Linux Installation

At FORBMAX, we offer turnkey cluster solutions that make Linux installation a breeze. With our pre-installed Linux clusters, you can get up and running quickly and efficiently.

Before deployment, we collaborate with you to make key decisions, including:

  • Choice of Linux Distribution: Whether you prefer CentOS, Debian, or Ubuntu, we help you select the best option for your needs.
  • Node Deployment Strategy: Together, we outline how new nodes will be integrated into your existing setup.
  • Cluster Components Installation: We determine which additional components are necessary to ensure smooth and convenient operations.

The choice of Linux distribution is often influenced by the compatibility with the calculation software you plan to use. Should any conflicts arise, our team is ready to troubleshoot and create effective solutions, ensuring your HPC cluster operates seamlessly.

Batch Job Scheduler

A job scheduler is essential for optimizing your High-Performance Computing (HPC) environment, especially when:

  • There are multiple users accessing the system.
  • You have numerous jobs that need to run sequentially (where one job can only start after the previous one finishes).
  • Job priorities or user priorities vary.

We offer several job schedulers that can be integrated into your cluster, including:

  • Torque/Maui: A straightforward option for simpler setups.
  • Slurm: An open-source scheduler widely used in large supercomputing centers, known for its scalability and flexibility.
  • LSF: A commercial scheduler that provides excellent Windows support for job submissions and accommodates Windows compute nodes.

The choice of scheduler depends on user experience, software compatibility, and specific requirements of your workloads. If your software includes a command-line interface, it can be effectively managed through a scheduler. Ultimately, selecting the right scheduler will ensure that your applications run efficiently and effectively, tailored to your unique operational needs.

Strategic Planning

  • A dedicated team collaborates with you to develop a deployment strategy aligned with your business goals.
  • We analyze your infrastructure, ensuring compatibility and scalability with your existing systems.
