Adaptive Computing Announces New Moab HPC Suite - Enterprise Edition

Adaptive Computing has announced the new Moab HPC Suite - Enterprise Edition, which combines Moab’s HPC workload management products with implementation services and 24 x 7 support.

Moab HPC Suite - Enterprise Edition is a new product offering designed to meet current and emerging enterprise HPC needs, according to company officials.

The new offering uses the patented Moab intelligence engine to improve productivity and uptime while meeting the SLAs and business priorities for HPC systems and HPC clouds. Company officials said that commercial enterprises as well as enterprise-level public sector organizations will benefit from this single integrated solution.

Noting that Modern enterprise HPC environments have high standards for uptime, responsiveness, and adherence to policies, Rob Clyde, CEO at Adaptive Computing, said that “our new Enterprise Edition meets those needs and provides the business ROI that our customers need.”

The new enterprise-ready offering brings together the key enterprise use cases and capabilities that have been “battle-tested” in previous Moab HPC product releases into one integrated solution.

In addition to Productivity acceleration and Uptime automation, the key use cases and capabilities include Auto-SLA enforcement, Grid- and Cloud-ready HPC management and Usage Reporting.

Company officials said that Productivity acceleration gets more results faster at a lower cost with unmatched scalability, while Uptime automation ensures that each workload completes successfully, avoiding failures and missed organizational objectives.

Auto-SLA enforcement schedules and adjusts workload to consistently meet service guarantees and business priorities, and Grid- and Cloud-ready HPC management extends the benefits of traditional HPC environment to efficiently manage workloads and better meet workload demands.

Company officials said that Usage reporting allows IT to determine usage to monitor costs and implement showback or chargeback to an individual, project or department.

And, key differentiators of the Moab HPC Suite - Enterprise Edition are the multi-dimensional intelligence engine.

Additionally, Moab Cluster Suite will be renamed to Moab HPC Suite - Basic Edition. Company officials said that Moab HPC Suite will be a family of products beginning with Moab HPC Suite - Enterprise Edition and Moab HPC Suite - Basic Edition.

Earlier in October, Penguin Computing and Adaptive Computing announced that The Jackson Laboratory selected Scyld ClusterWare and Moab HPC Suite to process its genomic sequencing data.
