Accelerate the creation of high-performance computing (HPC) clusters in Azure CycleCloud with ease.
Build and launch high performance computing (HPC) clusters within Azure CycleCloud easily using the Nextira HPC Accelerator.
This free Azure offering is a user-friendly way to create, customize and launch HPC clusters without a technical understanding of HPC clusters or CycleCloud’s API. All of this can be done while staying within the Azure CycleCloud platform.
To get started with our HPC Accelerator, all you need is an active Microsoft Azure subscription and your Azure subscription’s account owner credentials.
Simply connect your Azure account, configure your cluster’s settings and launch.
The HPC Accelerator user interface is simple and guides you through the cluster creation process.
Once your clusters are created and launched, you will be able to log into your CycleCloud environment via Secure Shell Protocol (SSH) or the CycleCloud portal to manage and monitor your cluster(s). Clusters created using the HPC Accelerator are built but do not run until they are turned on through Azure CycleCloud.
The HPC Accelerator is compatible with all CycleCloud server types and integrates with native Azure storage components. It is perfect for HPC system administrators or network administrators who want to effortlessly create and launch HPC clusters in their Azure CycleCloud environment. Strong technical knowledge is not necessary-all you need are the settings configurations/specifications for your cluster(s).
Streamline your HPC cluster creation and utilize these advantages:
Use Nextira HPC power to simulate the performance of new designs in the widest range of conditions.
With high-speed HPC clusters operating in parallel, you can train your AI applications faster, then get real-world results sooner.
