FlyElephant celebrates its first year of public access and announces cooperation with HPC-HUB

In November, FlyElephant celebrates its first year of public access. FlyElephant is a platform for data scientists, engineers, and scientists that accelerates business through automation of Data Science and Engineering Simulation.

“Thanks to the support received from Microsoft and Amazon in the framework of BizSpark Plus and AWS Activate programs, cooperation with the UNIT-IS data center and the SKIT cluster team, we were able to build a platform that can work with different computing resources and automate the execution of tasks in them.

The platform supports working with Azure public clouds and AWS, HPC clusters managed by SLURM, Swarm-based Docker clusters. More than 30 different languages ​​and tools have already been integrated into it, and their number is constantly growing.

During this year, the system brought together more than 1,000 users, which allowed us to collect a large number of reviews and understand how to develop further. An integral part of the platform has become its community, which consists of partner companies and individual experts who are ready to help in solving complex problems.

Together, we build new solutions based on the FlyElephant platform and invite everyone to join us , ”says FlySlearets CEO, FlyElephant.

Today, FlyElephant announces the start of cooperation with the HPC HUB company, which is the developer of complex software and hardware solutions in the field of high-performance computing to solve demanding problems of science and business, and provide them on the model of computing clouds.

Current HPC HUB products are based on full and container virtualization systems, OpenStack resource management system, Ceph distributed storage, and GFS2 cluster file system.

Our cooperation will replenish the FlyElephant platform with new computing capacities and in the near future 3 new clusters will be connected to it:

• HPC HUB 1: 80 nodes (2 × Xeon E5-2680v2 (20 cores), 64GB RAM, IB FDR) and 240TB of disk storage.
• HPC HUB 2: 100 nodes (2 × Xeon E5-2670v2 (20 cores), 256GB RAM, IB FDR) and 240TB of disk storage.
• HPC HUB 3: 150 nodes (2 × Xeon E5-2650v2 (16 cores), 128GB RAM, 2 × Tesla K80, IB FDR) and 240TB of disk storage.

A preliminary application for access to these clusters is already available on the FlyElephant platform .
