Session

DescriptionDeployment of exascale systems is expected to enable scientific breakthroughs. Increasingly these systems utilize cloud technologies, enabling complex workflows that can improve productivity and accessibility. While some high performance computing (HPC) services have been available within public cloud environments, petascale and beyond systems are largely provisioned within HPC facilities using traditional technologies. At the same time, on-demand and interactive services are common in cloud environments, but emergent in supercomputing ecosystems; both are indispensable to experimental facilities. This workshop aims to bring together experts and practitioners from academia, national laboratories, and industry to discuss technologies, use cases, and best practices that leverage high performance, extreme-scale computing, and cloud ecosystems. Topics of interest include tools and technologies for applications development and deployment, interoperability of HPC and cloud resources, cloud and HPC storage convergence, continuous integration/deployment approaches, reproducibility of scientific workflows in distributed environments, and best practices for enabling X-as-a-Service model at scale.
