Description
Running HEP workloads on a Cray system can be challenging since these systems typically don't look very much look a standard Linux system. This presentation will describe several tools NERSC has deployed to enhance HEP and other data intensive computing: Shifter, a docker-like container technology developed at NERSC, the Burst Buffer, a super fast IO layer, and a software defined network that allows high speed connections to the outside world. We will give an overview of the software and hardware architecture, deployment, and performance of these services.
