We recently teamed up with our good friends at SUSE to build a very high-performing and scalable storage landscape at a fraction of the cost than with traditional storage systems for the Swinburne University of Technology. The challenge that the IT team at Swinburne were facing is how to accommodate the ever-growing need for performance and capacity while sticking to a tight budget. With SUSE Enterprise Storage we have been able to deploy a compelling and affordable solution to support Swinburne’s storage needs. Their new storage platform is fast and flexible, meaning the IT team at Swinburne can support the needs of researchers more effectively. https://aptira.com/swinburne-university-technology/]]>

Audience Level Intermediate Synopsis Today’s fast-paced development environment has changed the compliance landscape. Many software projects consist of more than 50% Open Source Software (OSS) components, but as much as 99% are undocumented, increasing the complexities of managing your company’s software compliance process. Of particular concern is “Zombie software”, or software that is outdated and contains vulnerable versions of certain components. Zombies can live in your code forever if you’re not aware of them. The acceleration of modern development lifecycles and the breakdown of an undocumented software supply chain have opened up new pathways for zombies to enter your software – leaving you exposed to security threats. This presentation discusses best practices for implementing an Open Source Software management strategy that covers common pitfalls and commercial licence issues as well as the optimal way to track and eliminate the risks associated with Zombies! Speaker Bio: Involved in and around IT development for over 20 years, starting as a web developer using NotePad in 1995 when the most exciting thing online was Sun’s animated Java coffee cup, through Numega Pre-Sales selling BoundsChecker and now into the brave, new World of Open Source and software composition analysis.]]>

Audience Level Intermediate Synopsis The traditional user experience for High Performance Computing (HPC) centers around the command line, and the intricacies of the underlying hardware. At the same time, scientific software is moving towards the cloud, leveraging modern web-based frameworks, allowing rapid iteration, and a renewed focus on portability and reproducibility. This software still has need for the huge scale and specialist capabilities of HPC, but leveraging these resources is hampered by variation in implementation between facilities. Differences in software stack, scheduling systems and authentication all get in the way of developers who would rather focus on the research problem at hand. This presentation reviews efforts to overcome these barriers. We will cover container technologies, frameworks for programmatic HPC access, and RESTful APIs that can deliver this as a hosted solution. Speaker Bio Dr. David Perry is Compute Integration Specialist at The University of Melbourne, working to increase research productivity using cloud and HPC. David chairs Australia’s first community-owned wind farm, Hepburn Wind, and is co-founder/CTO of BoomPower, delivering simpler solar and battery purchasing decisions for consumers and NGOs.]]>

0 Federation and Interoperability in the Nectar Research Cloud /slideshow/federation-and-interoperability-in-the-nectar-research-cloud/151495697 nectaropenstackoz2017coddington-190624092011
Audience Level Beginner Synopsis The Nectar Research Cloud provides an OpenStack cloud for Australia’s academic researchers. Since its inception in 2012 it has grown steadily to over 30,000 CPUs, with over 10,000 registered users from more than 50 research institutions. It is different to many clouds in being a federation across eight organisations, each of which runs cloud infrastructure in one or more data centres and contributes to a distributed help desk and user support. A Nectar core services team runs centralised cloud services. This presentation will give an overview of the experiences, challenges and benefits of running a federated OpenStack cloud and a short demonstration on using the Nectar cloud. We will also describe some current approaches that are looking to extend this federation to encompass other institutions including some in New Zealand, to extend the infrastructure using commercial cloud providers, and to move towards interoperability with the growing number of international science and research clouds through the new Open Research Cloud initiative. Speaker Bio Dr Paul Coddington is a Deputy Director of Nectar, responsible for the Nectar national Research Cloud, and also Deputy Director of eResearch SA. He has over 30 years experience in eResearch including computational science, high performance and distributed computing, cloud computing, software development, and research data management.

Audience Level Intermediate Synopsis Ceph – the most popular storage solution for OpenStack – stores all data as a collection of objects. This object store was originally implemented on top of a POSIX filesystem, an approach that turned out to have a number of problems, notably with performance and complexity. BlueStore, a new storage backend for Ceph, was created to solve these issues; the Ceph Jewel release included an early prototype. The code and on-disk format were declared stable (but experimental) for Ceph Kraken, and now in the upcoming Ceph Luminous release, BlueStore will be the recommended default storage backend. With a 2-3x performance boost, you’ll want to look at migrating your Ceph clusters to BlueStore. This talk goes into detail about what BlueStore does, the problems it solves, and what you need to do to use it. Speaker Bio: Tim works for SUSE, hacking on Ceph and related technologies. He has spoken often about distributed storage and high availability at conferences such as linux.conf.au. In his spare time he wrangles pigs, chickens, sheep and ducks, and was declared by one colleague “teammate most likely to survive the zombie apocalypse”.]]>

Audience Level Intermediate Synopsis Data Analytics is a hot topic today for most organisations as they race to convert vast amounts of data into useful information that can be leveraged to make critical decisions or recommendations in a very limited time window. Today, there is a widely accepted talent gap when it comes to creating and managing Hadoop Clusters. Even for the experts can take hours (or days) to get a fully functional Hadoop farm up and running. On top of that it can be difficult to find java programmers that have enough experience to be productive with Map Reduce. OpenStack Sahara is looking to address most of this challenges by facilitating the deployment of Hadoop clusters and provide a set of API to provide data processing tasks. This session will provide an insight into OpenStack Sahara capabilities and how the end users can leverage on it. Speaker Bio: Alex has been working with Open Source enterprise technologies for the better part of his 15 years IT career in companies like Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, Red Hat, IBM and Sun Microsystems. He started his OpenStack journey with Grizzly, delivering the first HPC cloud in APAC for a Singapore University making use of SRIOV technologies combined with big data. He has extensive deployment experience on configuration management and automation of private cloud based on OpenStack. Alex is currently an APJ Cloud Consultant in the Helion Cloud team at Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, where he evangelizes the OpenSource side of the Helion portfolio (OpenStack / Docker / Ceph). He enjoys running automation workshops and seminars in the APJ region for cloud adopters.]]>

Audience Level Intermediate Synopsis High performance computing and cloud computing have traditionally been seen as separate solutions to separate problems, dealing with issues of performance and flexibility respectively. In a diverse research environment however, both sets of compute requirements can occur. In addition to the administrative benefits in combining both requirements into a single unified system, opportunities are provided for incremental expansion. The deployment of the Spartan cloud-HPC hybrid system at the University of Melbourne last year is an example of such a design. Despite its small size, it has attracted international attention due to its design features. This presentation, in addition to providing a grounding on why one would wish to build an HPC-cloud hybrid system and the results of the deployment, provides a complete technical overview of the design from the ground up, as well as problems encountered and planned future developments. Speaker Bio Lev Lafayette is the HPC and Training Officer at the University of Melbourne. Prior to that he worked at the Victorian Partnership for Advanced Computing for several years in a similar role.]]>

Using OpenStack as the compute provisioning layer, M3 is a hybrid HPC/cloud system, custom-integrated by Monash’s R@CMon Research Cloud team. Built to support Monash University’s next-gen high-throughput instrument processing requirements, M3 is half-half GPU-accelerated and CPU-only. We’ll discuss the design and tech used to build this innovative platform as well as detailing approaches and challenges to building GPU-enabled and HPC clouds. We’ll also discuss some of the software and processing pipelines that this system supports and highlight the importance of tuning for these workloads. Speaker Bio Blair Bethwaite: Blair has worked in distributed computing at Monash University for 10 years, with OpenStack for half of that. Having served as team lead, architect, administrator, user, researcher, and occasional hacker, Blair’s unique perspective as a science power-user, developer, and system architect has helped guide the evolution of the research computing engine central to Monash’s 21st Century Microscope. Lance Wilson: Lance is a mechanical engineer, who has been making tools to break things for the last 20 years. His career has moved through a number of engineering subdisciplines from manufacturing to bioengineering. Now he supports the national characterisation research community in Melbourne, Australia using OpenStack to create HPC systems solving problems too large for your laptop.
