GC-Workspaces
Integrated simulation environment for HPC
GC-Workspaces is the ideal environment for engineers, scientists, developers and researchers who want to concentrate on their engineering task at hand and not worry about complex HPC terms like queues,clusters,resources,complexes etc. GC-Workspaces is an Integrated simulation environment for E-Gompute. GC-Workspaces includes powerful HPC productivity tools like Template Generation, Case Cloning, Model Database connectors,and out of the box support for many of the technical and scientific computing software used today.
Feature Highlights
| Feature | Description | Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Structured HPC activities | HPC simulations organized in a self contained unit. | Organize your cases, data, input and output in an easy to understand structure. Have access to all your valuable results from a single point. |
| Multi Cluster Access | Single entry point to a heterogenous range of HPC resources. | Cut the learning curve on using HPC resources by understanding how to use only one easy GUI interface. Access any HPC resource irrespective of the architecture or the queuing system it incorporates. |
| Cloning | Clone your work across and within HPC resources. | Maintain relationships between your HPC activities and track how you arrived at a particular solution using the hereditary information maintained for all your HPC activities. |
| Monitoring | Real time console redirection of your job run. | Monitor your job running on a remote cluster from your workstation. |
| Templates | Generate templates for your HPC job. Forms are automatically generated based on selective inputs, outputs and images which are part of your HPC simulation. | Create a template once with what is relevant for the particular HPC activity and let other users not too familiar with the activity make maximum use of your work. |
| Model Database | Store all your simulations in a real database. | Store your simulations in a database with customized meta data for your organization. Make the database searchable for other users through GC-portal or any other web interface. These simulations can also be downloaded by other users and imported back into GC-Workspaces. |
| Shared Respository | Store all your HPC activities as self contained units called cases in a shared file system. | Enables collaborative High Performance Computing by letting users share their work with each other. |
| Application Independent | GC-Workspaces is application independent. | Utilize your HPC resource(s) in the same way irrespective of which application you use. One investment for a wide range of applications. |
| Non Invasive | No tampering with application files. | Being completely non-invasive lets you run your application on your HPC resource even outside GC-Workspaces. |
