An open cloud for european researchers, staff and students
summary
An experimental European research cloud repurposes a liquid cooled supercomputer into three OpenShift multi node clusters running RHEL on bare metal and OpenStack, with ACM, OpenShift AI and NVIDIA GPU operators installed and three OpenShift multi-node clusters serving testing, teaching and multicluster upstream work. Identity uses IDP LDAP and GitHub org identities with plans for SSO. Hardware currently includes older P100/V100 GPUs, 10% utilization of capacity, plans for 16 H200 GPUs, and an incoming IBM Z17 mainframe with 32 Spire accelerators supporting courses, POCs and research.
