About

Rocks is an open source Linux cluster distribution that enables end users to easily build computational clusters, grid endpoints, and visualization tiled-display walls. Since May 2000, the Rocks group has been addressing the difficulties of deploying manageable clusters with the goal of making clusters easy to deploy, manage, upgrade, and scale. The latest update, Rocks 7.0, codenamed Manzanita, is a 64-bit-only release based upon CentOS 7.4, with all updates applied as of December 1, 2017. Rocks include many tools, such as Message Passing Interface (MPI), which are integral components that make a group of computers into a cluster. Installations can be customized with additional software packages at install time by using special user-supplied CDs. The Spectre/Meltdown security vulnerabilities affect (nearly) all hardware and are addressed by OS updates.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Powerful automation capabilities. Robust security features. Simple to plug-in to existing cloud providers.
  • Efficient Provisioning: I love how Wayfinder allows me to provision environments and cloud resources on my own. It's intuitive and saves me a lot of time. Unified View: The centralised control feature is fantastic. It gives me a clear overview of all my clusters, apps, and cloud resources across different clouds. Customization: The access to underlying CRDs is a big plus. It lets me tweak the configurations to meet my specific needs. Automation: The automation of ephemeral clusters and namespaces for testing has made my deployment and upgrade processes much smoother. Security: I feel secure using Wayfinder. Its design principles of isolation and least privilege ensure that configurations and access are secure by default.
  • The implementation of isolation principles and visibility across all clouds are the most notable pros.
  • The end-to-end self-service, fine-grained control, and cloud automation features are beneficial. Visibility controls enable a centralized view of cloud applications and resources.
  • The centralised and fine-grained control of clusters and cloud resources is truly beneficial to our work.

Cons

  • Overwhelming number of customization options. Needs best help tooltips.
  • Learning Curve: It took me some time to get the hang of all the features Wayfinder offers. It's a robust platform, but there's a bit of a learning curve.
  • There are no identified cons at this point. Everything works perfectly so far.
  • I've found any and issues with the Appvia Wayfinder so far.
  • No significant negatives found at this stage, bar an expected learning curve.
