CLUSTER
The platform ABiMS offers a HPC/Cluster infrastructure based on the scheduler SLURM. It represents:
-
2600 Core CPU handled by the scheduler SLURM,
-
a secure data storage (RAID) of 2 PB
Since 2020, the whole cluster insfrastructure and some of its side applications had been refactoring. All the administration is now managed as a Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC). All the administration is done using the Ansible playbooks pushed on GitLab and some Continuous Integration robots (GitLab-CI). (Cf: Software layer)
This infrastructure has been financed by multiple sources :
-
Région Bretagne - BioGenOuest
-
Conseil Général - CG29
-
ANR projects
-
Station Biologique de Roscoff: FR2424, UMR8227, UMR7144
-
Investissements d'Avenir projects: EMBRC-France, IDEALG, Océanomics, IFB
-
GRSIBI projects.
In 2021, the number of users is evenly distributed between internal "Station Biologique de Roscoff" and external.
