Towards cloud-native scientific computing

  • Abstract

Cloud technologies have been influencing the scientific community for at least a decade. Virtualization, containerization, or object storage services are now routinely used in HPC data centers. What will come next? In this talk, we’ll give an introduction to Kubernetes, a cornerstone cloud-native technology, and explore its potential for scientific computing management. We’ll also look at other examples of leveraging cloud computing frameworks in scientific computing, including an application of Google Dataproc for tightly coupled  large-scale parallel processing.
