@jdpguana:matrix.org | In a cluster, does linux host treat node cpu as its own? Ex. if you /proc/stat from host, does it include the node cpus as well? | 14:49:56 |
swedishhat | In reply to @jdpguana:matrix.org In a cluster, does linux host treat node cpu as its own? Ex. if you /proc/stat from host, does it include the node cpus as well? That's a good question, and like most good questions, the answer is "it depends" | 17:21:23 |
swedishhat | What you're thinking of, where the linux host treats the node CPUs as its own is (i think) referred to as a Beowulf cluster | 17:22:11 |
swedishhat | in a lot of other cluster architectures, the nodes and hosts are processes or containters and instead of communicating via inter-process communication, they communicate with APIs and remote procedure calls | 17:24:02 |
@jdpguana:matrix.org | is that the most common cluster setup? I think its more stream line for linux | 17:24:05 |
swedishhat | An extremely popular cluster architecture is to use Kubernetes to deploy an orchestrate a bunch of different containers across machines | 17:25:48 |
swedishhat | But, it's all application dependent | 17:26:06 |
@jdpguana:matrix.org | In reply to @swedishhat:matrix.org in a lot of other cluster architectures, the nodes and hosts are processes or containters and instead of communicating via inter-process communication, they communicate with APIs and remote procedure calls is this sort of a worker setup? | 17:26:31 |
swedishhat | in the world of high-performance computing, like supercomputers doing meteorological simulations, the beowulf setup may be more common. I don't work in that space and don't really know for sure. | 17:27:19 |
swedishhat | In reply to @jdpguana:matrix.org is this sort of a worker setup? Kubernetes has a whole ecosystem of tools for hosts, workers, and infrastructure | 17:28:03 |
@jdpguana:matrix.org | yeah, i guess our cluster for quantum modelling is a beowulf type. | 17:30:38 |
swedishhat | what kind of stuff do you model with your cluster? | 17:31:54 |
swedishhat | i'm not familiar with quantum modelling | 17:32:09 |
@jdpguana:matrix.org | its nano tech stuff, stitching atoms and molecules via computers. We just sent jobs via mpich | 17:37:34 |
@jdpguana:matrix.org | back in the days, there were just core 2 duo, but i was suprised our cluster techician showed system monitor w/ 64 cores! | 17:38:50 |
@jdpguana:matrix.org | * back in the days, there were just core 2 duo, but i was suprised our cluster techician showed system monitor w/ i think 64 cores! | 17:39:13 |
@jdpguana:matrix.org | now u can now 64 core in one machine | 17:40:09 |
swedishhat | seriously! even more than that now | 17:42:52 |
swedishhat | As the open source silicon projects start to take off, I'm excited to see the weird, ad-hoc architectures that get built. Maybe we'll be seeing specialized 1024-core CPUs soon | 17:43:58 |
@jdpguana:matrix.org | w0w, that should be! CPU has been left out by the GPU already | 17:45:09 |
