All clusters will be connected to Renater with a 10Gb/s link (or at least 1 Gb/s, when 10Gb/s is not available yet).

==Rationale==
'''The foundations of Grid'5000''' have emerged from a thorough analysis and numerous discussions about methodologies used for scientific research in the Grid domain. A report presents the [http://www-sop.inria.fr/aci/grid/public/Library/rapport-grid5000-V3.pdf rationale for Grid'5000].
In addition to theory, simulators and emulators, there is a strong need for '''large scale testbeds''' where real life experimental conditions hold. '''The size of Grid'5000''', in terms of number of sites and number of processors per site, was established according to the scale of the experiments and the number of researchers involved in the project.

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 and 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


Read more about our teams, our publications, and the usage policy of the testbed. Then get an account, and learn how to use the testbed with our Getting Started tutorial and the rest of our Users portal.

Grid'5000 is merging with FIT to build the SILECS Infrastructure for Large-scale Experimental Computer Science. Read an Introduction to SILECS (April 2018)

Rss.svgNew Access Rules for Production Queue

We are introducing new access rules for clusters in the production queue. Clusters in this queue are now accessed based on priority levels that reflect their funding sources. Jobs submitted at higher priority levels are scheduled before those at lower levels and may also have longer maximum durations.

For more detailed information, please visit: https://www.grid5000.fr/w/Production#Using_production_resources . However, an important thing to note is that job submission commands that worked previously will still work after that change (but you might get higher or lower priority depending on your resources selection).

You can check your priority level for each cluster using https://api.grid5000.fr/explorer . Currently, this tool only displays basic information; however, we plan to add more features soon.

Please be aware that these changes apply only to the production clusters, which are currently available only in Nancy and Rennes. There are no changes to the "default" queue.

If you encounter any issues or have feedback regarding this new feature, or if you believe your priority level on specific resources is not adequate, please contact us at <support-staff@lists.grid5000.fr>.

Rss.svgCluster "estats" is now in the default queue in Toulouse

We are pleased to announce that the estats cluster of Toulouse (the name refers to Pica d'Estats) is now available in the default queue.

As a reminder, estats is composed of 12 edge-class nodes powered by Nvidia AGX Xavier SoCs. Each node features:

  • 1 ARM64 CPU (Nvidia Carmel micro-arch) with 8 cores
  • 1 Nvidia GPU (Nvidia Volta micro-arch)
  • 32 GB RAM shared between CPU and GPU
  • 1 NVMe of 2TB
  • 1 Gbps NIC
  • Since it is not a cluster of server-class machines (unlike all current other Grid'5000 nodes), estats runs a different default system environment, but other common functionalities are the same (kadeploy etc., except kavlan which is not supported yet).

    For the experimentations, it is recommended to deploy Ubuntu L4T.

    More information in the Jetson page.

    The cluster was funded by a CNRS grant.

    Rss.svgThe big variant of Debian 12 "Bookworm" environments is ready for deployments

    We are pleased to inform you that the big variant of Debian 12 (Bookworm) environments is now supported for deployments in Grid'5000. Check `kaenv3 -l debian12%` for detailed information.

    Notably, the NVIDIA driver has been updated to version 535.129.03, and CUDA has been upgraded to version 12.2.2_535.104.05_linux for the amd64 architecture.

    The default environment available on nodes will continue to be debian11-std for the foreseeable future.

    Please refer to the updated wiki documentation¹ for guidance on Debian 12-min|nfs|big usage.

    Rss.svgCluster "montcalm" is now in the default queue in Toulouse

    We have the pleasure to announce that the "montaclm" cluster is now available in the default queue of the Toulouse site, which makes the site full-fledged again!

    This cluster consists of 10 HPE Proliant DL360 Gen10+ nodes with 2 CPUs Intel Xeon Silver 4314 (16 cores per CPUs), 256 GB of DDR4 RAM, and 894GB SSD.

    Jobs submitted on the Toulouse site will run by default on this cluster.

    Beside the "montcalm" cluster, the "edge-class" cluster "estats" is still available in the testing queue for now.

    In order to support the SLICES-FR project, the site infrastructure has been funded by CNRS/INS2I and the "montcalm" cluster has been funded by University Paul Sabatier (UT3).
