Stop Scientists Stealing Your Nodes: Evaluating Slinky for Backfilling AI Resources Evaluating SchedMD's Slinky project to backfill Kubernetes clusters using some scheduling smarts.

Optimising AI & HPC Resource Utilisation.

In the evolving landscape of HPC, AI, and cloud compute, efficient resource allocation is critical. @stackhpc.com has been exploring Slinky from SchedMD that enables containerised, autoscaling Slurm clusters within Kubernetes. tinyurl.com/4854xr8d

#Azimuth meets these standards. Find out more at github.com/azimuth-clou...

#Azimuth recently underwent a security audit and we are pleased to report it came out with flying colours. 👍
Azimuth is a free and open source cloud portal making it easy to deploy and administer platforms such as #Slurm or #Kubernetes clusters on top on an #OpenStack cloud.
