1. SysFera-­‐DS   Pla%orm  for  HPCaaS   ©  SysFera     Benjamin  Depardon   SysFera,  Booth  #3645   HPC  and  SaaS  made  easy  
2. WHO  ARE  YOU  GUYS?   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
3. SysFera   •  2001:  Research  project  from  the  Graal  team   (Inria/ENS)   –  DIET:  grid  middleware   •  2007:  SysFera-­‐DS  used  within  the  Décrypthon   project   –  Used  in  producBon  24/7/365  since  then   –  Selected  by  IBM  to  replace  Univa-­‐UD   •  2010:  CreaBon  of  SysFera,  INRIA  spin-­‐off   •  2012:  A  team  of  14  (R&D:  5  engineers  and  4  PhD)   –  Supported  by  two  experts  from  INRIA  and  ENS   –  SysFera-­‐DS   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
4. THE  PROBLEMS   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
5. Distributed  pla%orms  are  complex…   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
6. …which  raises  some  issues   •  access  to  resources   •  numerous  accounts   •  mulBple  interfaces   •  integraBon  of  applicaBons   •  dependence  on  batch  schedulers   •  limited  interacBon  between  users,   applicaBons  and  machines   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
7. User’s  point  of  view   •  I  want  to  run  my  simulaBon   – I  don’t  care  where   – I  don’t  care  how   •  I  just  want  to  get  the  results   •  I  want  to  use     – The  tools  I  already  have   – Easy  interfaces   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
8. THE  SOLUTIONS   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
9. Easier,  homogeneous  access  to  resources   •  For  users   – A  unique  interface  for  R&D  engineers  to  launch   HPC  applicaBons   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
10. Easier,  homogeneous  access  to  resources   •  For  administrators  and  IT  directors   – AddiBonal  features  including  access-­‐rights  control,   usage  monitoring  and  reporBng   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
11. Easier,  homogeneous  access  to  resources   •  For  applicaBon  developers   – A  consistent  way  to  control  HPC  applicaBons   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
12. Easier,  homogeneous  access  to  resources   •  For  exisBng  pla%orms   – IntegraBon  to  specific  business  environments   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
13. Easier,  homogeneous  access  to  resources   •  On  various  internal  or  external  resources   – Supercomputers   – Clusters   – Private/Public  Clouds   – WorkstaBons   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
14. Easier,  homogeneous  access  to  resources   •  Tightly  integrated  with  exisBng  pla%orms  and   environments   •  CompaBble  and  usable  concurrently  with  the   soluBon  already  in  use   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012

22. Industrializing  HPC  applicaBons   •  SysFera-­‐DS  turns  a  complex  infrastructure  into   a  private  Cloud   •  Single  Sign  On  =  simple  access   •  One  code  compaBble  with  several  resources   •  A  unified  interface  leads  to  unified  processes     ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
23. SALOME  &  SysFera-­‐DS   •  SALOME  6.5.0  uses  SysFera-­‐DS   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012   – Single  sign-­‐on   – Job  management   – File  transfer   management  
24. Features   •  Simple  access  to  complex  infrastructures   •  Advanced  administraBon  features   –  User  management  and  access  control   –  Monitoring  and  reporBng   •  Consistent  pla%orm  for  applicaBon  development   •  IntegraBon  to  exisBng  environments   •  CompaBbility  with  many  different  resources   •  Non-­‐intrusive,  non-­‐exclusive   •  Flexible,  stable,  reliable,  performant   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
25. JOIN  THE  COMMUNITY   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
26. The  power  of  the  community   •  The  core  of  SysFera-­‐DS  is  open-­‐source   somware…   •  ...which  means  anyone  can  use  it,  share  it,  and   contribute  to  it.   github.com/sysfera/vishnu   ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012  
27. Working  with  a  leading  internaBonal  company     Thanks  to  SysFera-­‐DS,  we  can  now  provide  our   R&D  engineers  a  stable,  reliable  and   performant  soluBon  to  access  our   supercomputers  and  compuBng  clusters.       ©  SysFera     SuperCompuBng  2012   David  Bateman   ICCOS  Group  Manager,  EDF
