HPC

All distributed compute works on the basis of taking a large JOB and breaking it to many smaller TASKS which are then parallelised

ExamplesHow do you take your compute?

OUCHLessons learned from getting too close to the coalface

A broken cluster is no place to be diagnosing

Scalability < Elasticity

Hybrid HPC is next to useless

95% through a petabyte is a bad place to find a bug

Thank you!
