AWS
High Performance Computing in the Cloud with AWS.
- This is work I have done at the High Performance Computing Center at the University of California, Riverside.
Introduction
Getting started using HPCC and Amazon Web Service (AWS) to quickly create an on-demand cluster private to you.
AWS Cluster benefits.
- Build a private cluster in 10 min.
- Any number of nodes, auto scaling (up and down), limit 20 to start
-
Any type of compute nodes
- High memory
- High CPU single/multi node
- GPUs
- For only as long as you need it - delete when done
- Familiar interface and job scheduler
- Build as many of these clusters as you need (even at the same time)
- Pay for only the time you use it - per/min billing

This is an simple example of a full HPC workflow using AWS.
