BoF Abstract and Topics

The SuperCompCloud workshop series has drawn participation from around the globe at ISC and SC since starting in 2019. The intersection of supercomputing and cloud technologies is more relevant than ever. This BoF will bring together experts and practitioners from academia, national labs, and industry to discuss technologies, use cases and best practices in order to set a vision and direction for leveraging high performance, extreme-scale computing and on-demand cloud ecosystems. The session will continue the discussion of the latest community developments with a level of interactivity distinct from the workshop series. 

Topics related to interoperability of exascale and cloud computing, networking and storage technologies leveraged by research teams and infrastructure providers with a goal to improve productivity and reproducibility of extreme-scale scientific workflows. Included within the scope:

• Virtualization for HPC, containers technologies, and multi-tenancy 

• Storage systems for HPC and cloud technologies (on-demand and interactive)

• Resource management and scheduling systems for HPC and cloud technologies

• Software defined infrastructure for high-end computing, storage and networking

• Application environment, integration and deployment technologies

• Secure, high-speed networking for integrated HPC and cloud ecosystems

• Use cases: Extreme data and compute workflows, research infrastructure deployment

• Resiliency and reproducibility of complex and distributed workflows

• Isolation and security within shared HPC environments

• X-as-a-Service technologies with performance and scalability

• Workflow orchestration using public cloud and HPC data centre resources

• Authentication, authorization and accounting for HPC and cloud ecosystems

• Workforce development for integrated HPC and cloud environments
