FirecREST for RESTful HPC

The Swiss National Supercomputing Centre is pleased to announce the webinar " Firecrest for RESTful HPC" which will be held online on Thursday, 01 July, from 10:00 to 11:00 (CEST).

Content

Enabling programatic access of HPC resources

Firecrest is bringing the world of programmable Web applications to HPC infrastructure. It uses Web-enabled REST API to expose in a programable way the access of HPC resources including the capability to interact with an HPC workload manager or to move data from/to HPC storage. Such a modern and externally accessible interface enables users to build new tools, integrate workflow managers with standard technology or develop web services and portals that can use HPC resources.

This webinar provides an introduction to the core concepts and the architecture of FirecREST. Furthermore, the implementation of a variety of micro-services through FirecREST on Piz Daint are illustrated via a use case.
