Joseph George on Datacenter Trends that are Reshaping HPC
June 10, 2017 by
In this video from the Dell EMC HPC Community meeting, Joseph George describes the latest trends in the datacenter that are reshaping high performance computing. “Joseph George is the former Vice President of Solutions at SUSE responsible for building and driving the new solutions organization at SUSE, specifically focused on tackling specific customer challenges with engineered solutions by leveraging OpenStack, Ceph, Linux, and more.”
SUSE Adds HPC Module for ARM-based Systems
March 16, 2017 by
Over at the SUSE Blog, Jay Kruemcke writes that the High-Performance Computing Module (HPC Module) for SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLES) is now available for 64-bit ARM (AArch64) systems. The HPC Module is delivered as an add-on product to SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. “In summary, the HPC module allows us to keep the content closer to what’s happening in the HPC community upstream, providing more leading-edge tools in a more manageable fashion, leveraging a different lifecycle than the base SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. The new HPC module contains packages to optimize and manage HPC systems, and build HPC applications – building a bridge between the base server and an HPC stack (such as the stack provided by OpenHPC). This journey has started – some packages have already been made public and we have much more in the works and in our release queue.”
