Learn how to build on-demand Slurm clusters using the Azure CycleCloud workspace for Slurm and extend it with an Open OnDemand portal connected to Slurm. This talk will provide you with technical know-how and practical insights to efficiently leverage these tools, ensuring your Azure computational resources are both scalable and flexible.
Azure CycleCloud Workspace for Slurm is an Azure Marketplace solution template designed to facilitate the creation, configuration, and deployment of pre-defined Slurm clusters with CycleCloud on Azure. This solution does not require prior knowledge of Azure or Slurm. The Slurm clusters come pre-configured with PMix v4, Pyxis, and enroot to support containerized AI/HPC Slurm jobs. Users can access the provisioned login node via SSH or Visual Studio Code to perform tasks such as submitting and managing Slurm jobs.
Given that Open OnDemand provides HPC end users with remote web access to HPC clusters, it is logical to offer a streamlined method to deploy and configure Open OnDemand for the CycleCloud Workspace for Slurm cluster.
In this session, you will learn how to efficiently and swiftly build functional Slurm clusters and their Open OnDemand web access using Azure CycleCloud.
