AWS ParallelCluster version 3.8.0 is now generally available in AWS Secret Region. A key feature in this release is updated cluster scaling strategies to help you meet your scaling and cost requirements, ranging from strict all-or-nothing, that avoid launching idle instances, to best-effort, which prioritizes throughput scaling over avoiding idle instances. Other important features in this release include:
- Support for mounting user-defined file systems in AWS to the /home directory of the head node, helping you simplify cluster storage management.
- Custom Munge key to help you simplify integration of additional cluster resources that require the Scheduler Munge key.
AWS ParallelCluster is available at no additional charge, and you pay only for the AWS resources needed to run your applications. To learn more about launching HPC clusters on AWS, visit the AWS ParallelCluster User Guide.
