Upgrades deliver powerful scheduling
capabilities, cloud and AI integration, and HPC monitoring and
reporting
TROY,
Mich., Nov. 14, 2023 /CNW/
-- Altair (Nasdaq: ALTR), a global leader in
computational science and artificial intelligence (AI), announced
significant upgrades to Altair® HPCWorks™, its high-performance
computing (HPC) and cloud platform. New tools and integrations
include an AI-enhanced user portal, next-generation technology for
distributed workflows, advanced HPC monitoring and reporting, and
easier-than-ever cloud scaling.
"Altair HPCWorks advances Altair's HPC capabilities and helps
organizations accelerate innovation by simplifying their resource
management, workload management, workflow management, and
reporting," said Sam Mahalingam,
chief technology officer, Altair. "Our goal is to make it
effortless for users to leverage today's technology, so they can
focus on mission-critical work rather than the tools they use."
Boost User Productivity and Throughput with AI
Altair®
Access™, an AI-powered job submission and monitoring tool
available in Altair HPCWorks, uses historical data analysis, job
inputs, and input file mining to predict job behavior and estimate
memory and walltime requirements. It also regularly retrains itself
based on new data. Altair Access provides walltime estimates to
Altair® PBS Professional® to optimize scheduling, resulting in
significant job throughput gains of 10-15% for real workloads.
Frictionless Multi-Cluster HPC Scheduling
Also
included in Altair HPCWorks is Altair® Liquid Scheduling™ for PBS
Professional, which deploys across multiple existing scheduling
domains to deliver a scalability leap for the next generation of
supercomputers. Liquid Scheduling is a powerful, flexible HPC
feature that meets the demands of the latest distributed workflows.
It ensures that workloads run in the most efficient manner by
connecting multiple clusters and sites, eliminating silos, and
providing global visibility into resource utilization. The National
Supercomputing Centre (NSCC) Singapore is a key development partner for
Liquid Scheduling and plans to deploy the solution in 2024 as a
critical component of its future infrastructure.
Fast, Intuitive Reporting for HPC
Altair HPCWorks' new
reporting solution, Altair® InsightPro™, simplifies and streamlines
HPC and cloud reporting. With its user-friendly interface and
pre-built reports, InsightPro makes data-driven decision-making
easier than ever. It provides broad, detailed visibility into HPC
and cloud environments, enabling organizations to separate
mission-critical data and reporting from day-to-day metrics. This
gives administrators the information they need to make quick
decisions that improve utilization and efficiency. Open database
access makes it easy to connect InsightPro to sophisticated data
analytics solutions such as Altair® Panopticon™ and Altair®
RapidMiner® for advanced AI analysis.
Take Control of the Cloud
Altair's industry-leading
PBS Professional workload manager now includes direct access to
Altair® NavOps®, which helps enterprises migrate compute-intensive
technical HPC workloads to the cloud and provides complete
visibility into HPC cloud resources. Budget-aware spend management
lets users monitor and control costs to minimize cloud
expenses.
NavOps provides a single interface for dynamically scaling
resources in the most popular public clouds. This enables users to
leverage cloud HPC to expedite high-priority workloads, enable
peak-time resource shifts, and control operational budgets. NavOps
in PBS Professional offers an easy-to-use GUI for day-to-day
operations, as well as an extensive command-line interface (CLI)
for IT management, including installation and configuration.
Explore HPC with Altair One™
Altair One™, Altair's
cloud innovation gateway powered by Altair HPCWorks, enables teams
to seamlessly explore HPC in the cloud and on-premises. Users can
now easily create private clusters using their own cloud
subscriptions, fully configured with Altair applications and HPC
tools, and leveraging cutting-edge CPU and GPU hardware.
Additionally, Altair Drive™ gives teams control of their data
in the cloud with a seamless and intuitive workflow, integrated
2D/3D viewer, and intelligent, content-aware submission to Altair
HPCWorks clusters.
