Turn static clusters and grids into dynamic, shared HPC cloud environments

Platform Adaptive Cluster turns static clusters and grids into dynamic, shared HPC cloud computing environments using heterogeneous physical & virtual resources. It allocates resources dynamically based on Platform LSF and Platform Symphony workload demands. By being able to quickly repurpose servers and application environments based on flexible, workload-aware policies, customers enjoy tangible business benefits:

• Better utilization and service at lower cost by eliminating cluster and queue silos
• Reduced wait times – jobs complete faster
• Users perceive a larger resource pool
• Administrator workload reduced through automation
• Reduced power consumption

Why build an HPC cloud?

HPC cloud computing has the potential to become a major tool for scientists and engineers to access high performance computing resources. It enables efficient HPC computing while reducing the associated cost of building dedicated HPC systems. New developments driving the evolution of computing resources across many application segments show that the HPC cloud can deliver the required scalability and utilization on par with the existing  native approach of designing dedicated systems for specific applications. Let Platform Computing show you how you can apply Platform Adaptive Cluster  to begin building your own HPC cloud.
