Protein Structure Prediction at Scale using AWS Batch
In this post, we discuss how Novo Nordisk approached the deployment of a scale-out HPC platform for running AlphaFold, while meeting their enterprise IT requirements and keeping the user experience simple.
Rigor and flexibility: the benefits of agent-based computational economics
In this post, we describe Agent-Based Computational Economics (ACE), and how extreme scale computing makes it beneficial for policy design.
Introducing GPU health checks in AWS ParallelCluster 3.6
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.
Deploying a Level 3 Digital Twin Virtual Sensor with Ansys on AWS
AWS is developing new tools to enable easier and faster deployment of level 3 digital twin virtual sensors. in this post we show why L3 digital twins are needed for virtual sensors and how to elastically deploy one the cloud at scale.
How Evolvere Biosciences performs macromolecule design on AWS
In this blog post, we catch a glimpse into drug discovery to see how Evolvere Biosciences has deployed a customized architecture w/ AWS Batch and Nextflow to quickly and easily run its macromolecule design pipeline.
Simulating climate risk scenarios for the Amazon Rainforest
In this post, we discuss the “tipping point” problem, using HPC at a large scale to simulate the impact of deforestation to the risk of accelerating damage to the Amazon rainforest.
The benefits of computational chemistry for the circular economy
In this blog post, we’ll explore the benefits of computational chemistry for the circular economy, how it can help reduce waste, and describe the potential for new innovative materials.
Elastic visualization queues with NICE DCV in AWS ParallelCluster
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.
Checkpointing HPC applications using the Spot Instance two-minute notification from Amazon EC2
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.
