From initial deployment to ongoing managed HPC operations, every engagement is vendor-neutral, ensuring no hardware margin or supplier bias. Our expertise includes HPC cluster design and HPC procurement advisory to support your needs.
From the first conversation about HPC Cluster Design to an accepted, benchmarked, production-ready cluster, our HPC Procurement Advisory services ensure a smooth transition into Managed HPC Operations.
With a monthly retainer, your HPC cluster design remains healthy without the need for a full-time hire, thanks to our HPC procurement advisory and managed HPC operations.
Before your HPC RFP goes to tender, ensure you review and refine it to align with your HPC Cluster Design needs, consider HPC Procurement Advisory for expert guidance, and evaluate options for Managed HPC Operations.
We break your HPC cluster first, deliberately, during a controlled maintenance window. This approach is part of our HPC cluster design strategy, ensuring optimal performance while also providing HPC procurement advisory and managed HPC operations.
We offer practical training for researchers, administrators, and IT teams that includes insights on HPC Cluster Design, HPC Procurement Advisory, and Managed HPC Operations.
Workload analysis and right-sizing — ensuring you have the optimal HPC cluster design, not just the largest one you can afford. Our HPC procurement advisory includes hardware specification and vendor-neutral procurement guidance. We provide OS provisioning using Warewulf 4 or xCAT on Rocky Linux 9 / RHEL 9. Additionally, we handle Slurm configuration for partitions, fairshare, GPU scheduling, memory limits, and cgroup enforcement. For InfiniBand bring-up, we manage MOFED installation, fabric validation with ibdiagnet, and bandwidth testing. Our solutions for parallel storage include Lustre or BeeGFS with precise stripe configuration, and we ensure IOR-validated throughput. We conduct HPL, STREAM, and IOR benchmarking, complete with a detailed acceptance report. Finally, we offer user training and documentation that your team will actually use, supporting your managed HPC operations.
Research labs, AI startups, pharma R&D teams, engineering simulation groups, and IT resellers are engaging in HPC projects with a focus on HPC Cluster Design, HPC Procurement Advisory, and Managed HPC Operations.
The timeline for HPC Cluster Design and acceptance can vary from 6 to 11 weeks based on the cluster size and site readiness, a crucial aspect of HPC Procurement Advisory and Managed HPC Operations.

When dealing with HPC cluster design, you may encounter situations where you need to submit jobs that exceed the requested memory. It's important to consider whether cgroup enforcement will terminate processes cleanly or if the node will resort to swapping. For effective HPC procurement advisory and managed HPC operations, understanding these details is crucial.
Force a port to failure under thermal load within your HPC Cluster Design. It's essential to assess whether MPI degrades gracefully or catastrophically during such events. This insight is crucial for HPC Procurement Advisory and ensuring effective Managed HPC Operations.
Submit 500 jobs simultaneously within your HPC cluster design. After that, kill and restart slurmctld. Does the queue recover cleanly during your managed HPC operations?
Take the primary login node offline. Can users still access the HPC cluster design? Is there a secondary path available for connectivity during the HPC procurement advisory process? This ensures we maintain effective managed HPC operations.
Every scenario classified: recovers automatically, requires manual intervention, causes data loss, or fails silently. Delivered as a written resilience report with remediation steps, this is a crucial part of HPC cluster design and managed HPC operations. It's the test your vendor never ran, ensuring you're well-informed during HPC procurement advisory.
