The Swiss National Supercomputing Centre is pleased to announce the webinar "Deploying High-Performance Containers with Sarus on Piz Daint" which will be held online on Wednesday, 30 June, from 10:00 to 11:00 (CEST).

Content

Sarus is a container engine aiming to bridge the gap between container portability and native HPC performance. Leveraging container customization through open standard plugins, it enables maximum hardware performance starting from generic Docker images. Sarus has been designed to integrate with unique features of HPC infrastructures such as parallel filesystem, batch schedulers, GPU accelerators or MPI, while providing a familiar Docker-style command-line interface.

This webinar provides an introduction to Sarus on Piz Daint from the user's perspective, covering fundamental workflows, the command line interface as well as best practices for running containers with MPI and GPUs. Examples ranging from simple benchmark runs to a real-world HPC application are used illustrate the presented information.
