HSUper
HSUper is a supercomputer consisting of more than 580 nodes divided in various partitions with the largest currently consisting of 569 nodes. Jobs can be submitted using the installed slurm workload manager. The following links lead to the HSUper documentation on the HPC Portal.
Technical Specifications
The HSUper cluster consists of
- Regular nodes: 571 compute nodes each equipped with 256 GB RAM and 2 Intel Icelake sockets; each socket features a Intel(R) Xeon (R) Platinum 8360Y processor with (up to) 36 cores, yielding a total of 72 cores per node
- Fat memory nodes: 5 compute nodes each equipped with 1 TB RAM and 2 Intel Icelake sockets; each socket features a Intel(R) Xeon (R) Platinum 8360Y processor with (up to) 36 cores, yielding a total of 72 cores per node
- GPU nodes:
- 5 compute nodes each equipped with 256 GB RAM, 2 Intel Icelake sockets, 2 NVidia A100 (40GB) GPUs and 894GB local scratch storage; each socket features a Intel(R) Xeon (R) Platinum 8360Y processor with (up to) 36 cores, yielding a total of 72 cores per node
- 4 compute nodes each equipped with 1 TB RAM, 2 Intel Icelake sockets, 8 NVIDIA L40S GPUs with 48 GB memory and 3.4 TB local scratch storage; each socket features a Intel(R) Xeon (R) Platinum 8360Y processor with (up to) 36 cores, yielding a total of 72 cores per node
Besides, HSUper provides access to a 1PB BeeGFS file system, as well as a 1 PB Ceph-based file system.
All nodes are connected by a non-blocking NVIDIA InfiniBand HDR100 fabric.
ISCC
The Interactive Scientific Computing Cloud (ISCC) aims to fill the gap for users with specific needs that cannot be containerized as well as users with workloads that cannot be satisfied by existing local machines and do not yet require the entire power of HSUper. The following links lead to the ISCC documentation on the HPC Portal.
Technical Specifications
The ISCC cluster consists of 13 hosts in total, with the same hardware specifications as HSUper, except for the interconnect, which is capable of 50Gb/s over Ethernet instead of InfiniBand HDR100.
- Regular hosts: 10 hosts each equipped with 256 GB RAM and 2 Intel Icelake sockets; each socket features a Intel(R) Xeon (R) Platinum 8360Y processor with 32 cores, yielding a total of 64 cores per host.
- GPU hosts:
- 2 hosts each equipped with 1 TB RAM, 2 Intel Icelake sockets, 8 NVidia A30 (24GB) GPUs and 2TB local scratch storage; each socket features a Intel(R) Xeon (R) Platinum 8360Y processor with 32 cores, yielding a total of 64 cores per host
- 1 host equipped with 2 TB RAM, 2 Intel Icelake sockets, 5 NVIDIA L40S (48GB) GPUs and 2TB local scratch storage; each socket features a Intel(R) Xeon (R) Platinum 8360Y processor with 32 cores, yielding a total of 64 cores per host.
