Create HPC cluster environments on IBM Cloud in two steps.

The IBM Spectrum LSF HPC cluster solution enables customers to quickly build a high-performance computing environment (HPC) on IBM Cloud in minutes. The HPC cluster consists of a set of infrastructure nodes, a pool of computing resources and a shared filesystem. The cluster comes with required software components to run HPC workloads and provides the job scheduler, which can scale up and down the compute resources based on the job demands. Follow the two steps below to create an HPC cluster for your workloads today:

Step 1

Go to the IBM catalog page. Search “HPC” as a keyword and select the solution: 

Step 2

The catalog page for the HPC Cluster solution has a section that lists the required parameters: 

Fill out the values in this section. On the right-hand side of this page, select the license agreement and push the Install button. The HPC cluster will be created automatically for you.

Optimize observability with IBM Cloud Logs to help improve infrastructure and app performance

5 min read - There is a dilemma facing infrastructure and app performance—as workloads generate an expanding amount of observability data, it puts increased pressure on collection tool abilities to process it all. The resulting data stress becomes expensive to manage and makes it harder to obtain actionable insights from the data itself, making it harder to have fast, effective, and cost-efficient performance management. A recent IDC study found that 57% of large enterprises are either collecting too much or too little observability data.…
