Optimizing MPI application performance on hpc7a by effectively using both EFA devices
Get the inside scoop on optimizing your MPI apps and configuration for AWS’s powerful new Hpc7a instances. Dual rail gives these instances huge networking potential @ 300 Gb/s – if properly used. This post provides benchmarks, sample configs, and real speedup numbers to help you maximize network performance. Whether you run weather simulations, CFD, or other HPC workloads, you’ll find practical tips for your codes.
New: Research and Engineering Studio on AWS
Today we’re announcing Research and Engineering Studio on AWS, a self-service portal to help scientists and engineers access and manage virtual desktops to see their data and run their interactive applications in the cloud.
Cost-optimization on Spot Instances using checkpoint for Ansys LS-DYNA
A major portion of the costs incurred for running Finite Element Analyses (FEA) workloads on AWS comes from the usage of Amazon EC2 instances. Amazon EC2 Spot Instances offer a cost-effective architectural choice, allowing you to take advantage of unused EC2 capacity for up to a 90% discount compared to On-Demand Instance prices. In this post, we describe how you 0can run fault-tolerant FEA workloads on Spot Instances using Ansys LS-DYNA’s checkpointing and auto-restart utility.
