Optimizing HPC Application Performance with Parallel Storage
Recorded: March 21, 2007
Speakers:
- Brent Welch, Director of Software Architecture, Panasas
Brent contributes to technical development including file system protocol design, storage cluster management, software architecture, test automation, and performance analysis tools. He co-authored the pNFS standards proposal and is one of the industry’s leading parallel file system architects. Welch received his BA in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Colorado, his MS in Computer Science and his Ph.D. in Computer Science from UC, Berkeley.
- Jeff Butler, Software Engineering Manager
Panasas
Jeff has ten years of expertise working with Object-Based Storage Systems including contributions to the Network Attached Secure Disk (NASD) project at the Carnegie Mellon Parallel Data Lab. At Panasas he manages File System Client technology that allows high-performance and scalable access to storage. Jeff holds an MS and BS in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University.
Linux clusters running modeling and simulation applications demand both performance and scalability. Traditional storage systems using NFS servers often experience bottlenecks that diminish I/O performance and negatively impact cluster productivity. Join the Panasas experts in this technical Webinar to examine how parallel clustered storage can dramatically boost application performance and accelerate time to results.
Application Developers and Cluster Administrators will benefit from this Webinar and will:
- Learn about the benefits of parallel I/O for HPC applications
- Examine detailed customer successes where parallel I/O technology helped
avoid time-consuming and costly bottlenecks in application throughput
- Learn how to take full advantage of parallel I/O technology including the
emerging parallel NFS standard
