Intelligent grid-enablement software that consolidates distributed HPC resources for optimal workload distribution

• Simplifies Platform LSF cluster consolidation
• Improves visibility to global resource use
• Boosts user productivity
• Optimizes utilization
• Reduces complexity

Platform MultiCluster consolidates compute resources from multiple, distributed Platform LSF clusters so that workload can be distributed more efficiently across the datacenter or the globe. Just as Platform LSF enables more effective sharing of resources within a single cluster, Platform MultiCluster extends this concept to enable flexible hierarchical or peer-to-peer workload distributions between multiple clusters.

By ensuring that local administrators retain control of their own assets while still allowing remote clusters to tap idle capacity, Platform MultiCluster promotes efficiency by removing the problem of underutilized compute resources. Unlike competing approaches that require sites to implement an expensive, customized scheduling layer to share resources between clusters, Platform MultiCluster transparently extends existing Platform LSF capabilities, making Platform MultiCluster exceptionally fast and cost-efficient to deploy.
