AWS ParallelCluster 3.6.0 can now detect GPU failures in HPC and AI/ML tasks. Health checks run at the start of Slurm jobs and if they fail, the job is requeued on another instance. This can increase reliability and prevent wasted spend.

In this blog post we’ll show you how to create an elastic pool of visualization nodes, by combining AWS ParallelCluster with NICE DCV in a novel way.

In this post we show you how to create an HPC cluster and capture the two-minute warning notifications from Amazon EC2 Spot to execute a checkpoint, reactively.

Today, we’re announcing the availability of Spack configs for AWS ParallelCluster. You can use these configurations to install optimized HPC applications quickly and easily on your AWS-powered HPC clusters.

In this post, we describe an integration of Open OnDemand with AWS ParallelCluster so admins can provide web-based access to HPC resources beyond what they have at their site, by using the AWS cloud to add new capabilities and extend capacity.

In AWS ParallelCluster 3.4, you can now build HPC clusters that span multiple Amazon EC2 Availability Zones. In this post, we describe how the new feature works, how to use it, and some implications for cluster design that it raises.

Slurm accounting adds flexibility, transparency, and control to operating an #HPC cluster. #AWS #ParallelCluster 3.3.0 can now automatically configure #Slurm accounting whether you are using your own database or Amazon #Aurora.

In this post we recap all the really significant feature released in DCV from 2022 that delighted our customers. Of course, we’re still not done, so expect more in 2023.

In this post we describe the process to launch large, self-supervised training jobs using AWS ParallelCluster and Facebook’s Vision Self-Supervised Learning (VISSL) library.

AWS ParallelCluster 3.3.0 now lets you define a list of Amazon EC2 instance types for resourcing a compute queue. This gives you more flexibility to optimize the cost and total time to solution of your HPC jobs, especially when capacity is limited or you’re using Spot Instances.
