AWS ParallelCluster is an open-source cluster management tool that simplifies the deployment and management of High-Performance Computing (HPC) clusters on AWS. It automates the setup of required resources, including compute nodes, a shared filesystem, and a job scheduler, supporting multiple instance types and job submission queues. Users can interact with ParallelCluster through a graphical user interface, command-line interface, or API, enabling flexible cluster configuration and management. The tool integrates with job schedulers like AWS Batch and Slurm, facilitating seamless migration of existing HPC workloads to the cloud with minimal modifications. AWS ParallelCluster is available at no additional charge; users only pay for the AWS resources consumed by their applications. With AWS ParallelCluster, you can use a simple text file to model, provision, and dynamically scale the resources needed for your applications in an automated and secure manner.

Amazon EC2 G4 instances are optimized for machine learning inference and graphics-intensive applications. It offers a choice between NVIDIA T4 GPUs (G4dn) and AMD Radeon Pro V520 GPUs (G4ad). G4dn instances combine NVIDIA T4 GPUs with custom Intel Cascade Lake CPUs, providing a balance of compute, memory, and networking resources. These instances are ideal for deploying machine learning models, video transcoding, game streaming, and graphics rendering. G4ad instances, featuring AMD Radeon Pro V520 GPUs and 2nd-generation AMD EPYC processors, deliver cost-effective solutions for graphics workloads. Both G4dn and G4ad instances support Amazon Elastic Inference, allowing users to attach low-cost GPU-powered inference acceleration to Amazon EC2 and reduce deep learning inference costs. They are available in various sizes to accommodate different performance needs and are integrated with AWS services such as Amazon SageMaker, Amazon ECS, and Amazon EKS.

QumulusAI delivers supercomputing without constraint, combining scalable HPC with grid-independent data centers to break bottlenecks and power the future of AI. QumulusAI is universalizing access to AI supercomputing, removing the constraints of legacy HPC and delivering the scalable, high-performance computing AI demands today. And tomorrow too. No virtualization overhead, no noisy neighbors, just dedicated, direct access to AI servers optimized with NVIDIA’s latest GPUs (H200) and Intel/AMD CPUs. QumulusAI offers HPC infrastructure uniquely configured around your specific workloads, instead of legacy providers’ one-size-fits-all approach. We collaborate with you through design, deployment, to ongoing optimization, adapting as your AI projects evolve, so you get exactly what you need at each step. We own the entire stack. That means better performance, greater control, and more predictable costs than with other providers who coordinate with third-party vendors.

Over the past two decades, software technologies have advanced greatly and HPC computing has scaled by orders of magnitude. Our human ability to comprehend simulation results has remained the same. Simply making plots and movies in the traditional way does not scale when dealing with multi-billion cell meshes or ten’s of thousands of timesteps. Automated solution assessment is accelerated when features and quantitative properties can be produced directly via eigen analysis or machine learning. Easy-to-use industry standard FieldView desktop coupled to the powerful VisIt Prime backend.

NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC) is a GPU-accelerated cloud platform optimized for deep learning and scientific computing. NGC manages a catalog of fully integrated and optimized deep learning framework containers that take full advantage of NVIDIA GPUs in both single GPU and multi-GPU configurations. NVIDIA train, adapt, and optimize (TAO) is an AI-model-adaptation platform that simplifies and accelerates the creation of enterprise AI applications and services. By fine-tuning pre-trained models with custom data through a UI-based, guided workflow, enterprises can produce highly accurate models in hours rather than months, eliminating the need for large training runs and deep AI expertise. Looking to get started with containers and models on NGC? This is the place to start. Private Registries from NGC allow you to secure, manage, and deploy your own assets to accelerate your journey to AI.
