by Ryo Kunimoto, Mark Azadpour, Rei Kajitani, Rintaro Yamada, and Takehiro Nakajima on Permalink Share

This blog was co-authored by Takehiro Nakajima and Mark Azadpour from AWS and Rintaro Yamada, Rei Kajitani and Ryo Kunimoto from Daiichi Sankyo In recent years, the informatics field of drug discovery has seen a rapid increase in workloads requiring large-scale parallel computing, such as genome analysis, structure prediction, and drug design. Daiichi Sankyo has […]

What’s the difference between AWS ParallelCluster and AWS Parallel Computing Service?

It’s been a year since we announced AWS Parallel Computing Service (PCS). In a way this is the third generation of Slurm-based HPC orchestrators that we’ve brought to you. We’ve learned much from helping customers deploy serious production workloads on AWS ParallelCluster, which itself grew from the foundations layed by CfnCluster – the open-source project […]

A scientific approach to workload-aware computing on AWS

A scientific approach to workload-aware computing on AWS

HPC workloads demonstrate predictable resource patterns that can directly determine optimal cloud instance selection. To save you conducting extensive custom benchmarking, this blog post presents a data-driven methodology for instance selection based on established performance research. In this post, you’ll learn how to use coupling patterns to drive instance selection. We’ll outlines our scientific methodology […]
