Cluster-as-a-Service (CaaS) is an innovative concept that empowers end users of an OpenStack private cloud to easily create sophisticated, isolated, and secure clustered infrastructure within their private cloud. CaaS deploys a ready-to-use HPC cluster, preconfigured with all required HPC libraries (e.g. MPI, OpenMP, CUDA), compilers, workload managers (e.g. Slurm, LSF, Torque, Grid Engine) and other tools that users need to quickly start running HPC workloads. HPC is only one application -- Bright solutions seamlessly deploy Hadoop/Spark, Ceph, OpenStack, and many other clustered environments “as-a-service”.
Bright will also demonstrate how its turnkey Bright OpenStack™ platform makes it easier than ever to deploy, manage, and monitor OpenStack from a single pane of glass. Leveraging its ten years of experience in deploying, managing and monitoring HPC clusters, the company will also showcase how Bright OpenStack can be leveraged to spin up HPC and Big Data clusters “as a service” (CaaS) inside of an OpenStack private cloud.
