=== Grid'5000 under extension to Porto Alegre, Brazil ===
'''Grid'5000 is a large-scale and flexible testbed for experiment-driven research in all areas of computer science, with a focus on parallel and distributed computing, including Cloud, HPC, Big Data and AI.'''
July 21st, 2009, INRIA and UFRGS signed a Memorandum of Understanding marking
the cooperation of the two institutes towards the extension of the
Grid'5000 platform to Brazil.


According to the terms of this memo, UFRGS will contribute to Grid'5000

Grid'5000 is a precursor infrastructure of SLICES-RI, Scientific Large Scale Infrastructure for Computing/Communication Experimental Studies.
Content on this website is partly outdated. Technical information remains relevant.

Grid'5000

Grid'5000 is a large-scale and flexible testbed for experiment-driven research in all areas of computer science, with a focus on parallel and distributed computing, including Cloud, HPC, Big Data and AI.

Key features:

  • provides access to a large amount of resources: 15000 cores, 800 compute-nodes grouped in homogeneous clusters, and featuring various technologies: PMEM, GPU, SSD, NVMe, 10G and 25G Ethernet, Infiniband, Omni-Path
  • highly reconfigurable and controllable: researchers can experiment with a fully customized software stack thanks to bare-metal deployment features, and can isolate their experiment at the networking layer
  • advanced monitoring and measurement features for traces collection of networking and power consumption, providing a deep understanding of experiments
  • designed to support Open Science and reproducible research, with full traceability of infrastructure and software changes on the testbed
  • a vibrant community of 500+ users supported by a solid technical team

Rss.svgCluster "vianden" is now in the default queue in Luxembourg

We are pleased to announce that the vianden[1] cluster of Luxembourg is now available in the default queue.

Vianden is a cluster of a single node with 8 MI300X AMD GPUs.

The node features:

  • 2x CPU Intel Xeon Platinum 8470 (52 cores/CPU, 2 threads/cores)
  • 8x AMD Instinct MI300X (192 GiB each)
  • 2TiB RAM
  • 1x 3.2TB NVME disk
  • The AMD MI300X GPUs are not supported by Grid'5000 default system (Debian 11). However, one can easily unlock full GPU functionality by deploying the ubuntu2404-rocm environment:

    fluxembourg$ oarsub -t exotic -t deploy -p vianden -I

    fluxembourg$ kadeploy3 -m vianden-1 ubuntu2404-rocm

    More information in the Exotic page.

    This cluster was funded by the University of Luxembourg.

    Rss.svgCluster "hydra" is now in the default queue in Lyon

    We are pleased to announce that the hydra[1] cluster of Lyon is now available in the default queue.

    As a reminder, Hydra is a cluster composed of 4 NVIDIA Grace-Hopper servers[2].

    Each node features:

  • 1 Nvidia Grace ARM64 CPU with 72 cores (Neoverse-V2)
  • 1 Nvidia Hopper GPU
  • 512GB LPDDR5 memory
  • 96GB HBM memory
  • 1x1To SSD NVME + 1x1.92To SCSI disk
  • Due to its bleeding-edge hardware, the usual Grid'5000 environments are not supported by default for this cluster.

    (Hydra requires system environments featuring a Linux kernel >= 6.6). The default system on the hydra nodes is based on Debian 11, but **does not provide functional GPUs**. However, users may deploy the ubuntugh2404-arm64-big environment, which is similar to the official Nvidia image provided for this machine and provides GPU support.

    To submit a job on this cluster, the following command may be used:

    oarsub -t exotic -p hydra

    This cluster is funded by INRIA and by Laboratoire de l'Informatique du Parallélisme with ENS Lyon support.

    [1] Hydra is the largest of the modern constellations according to Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydra_(constellation)

    Rss.svgCluster "chirop" is now in the default queue of Lille with energy monitoring.

    Dear users,

    We are pleased to announce that the Chirop[1] cluster of Lille is now available in the default queue.

    This cluster consists of 5 HPE DL360 Gen10+ nodes with:

  • 2 CPU Intel Xeon Platinum 8358 (32 cores per CPU)
  • 512 GiB memory
  • 1*1.92TB SSD NVME + 2*3.84TB SSD
  • 2*25 Gbps Ethernet interface
  • Energy monitoring[2] is also available for this cluster[3], provided by newly installed Wattmetres (similar to those already available at Lyon).

    This cluster was funded by CPER CornelIA.
