Report from kick-off meeting
The HSF/WLCG cost and performance modeling working group was established in November 2017 and has since then achieved considerable progress in our understanding of the performance factors of the LHC applications, the estimation of the computing and storage resources and the cost of the infrastructure and its evolution for the WLCG sites. This contribution provides an update on the recent...
This is an overview of status and plans for the procurements of compute/storage for CERN data centres and some recent adaptations to better benefit from technology trends. The talk will also cover our workflow for hardware repairs as well as status and plans of our ongoing efforts in establishing inventories for deployed assets and spare parts. It will also cover some recent hardware issues...
This talk will be about the proposed superfacility structure that NERSC is working toward. This is the next model of HPC computing combining all aspects of the data center, infrastructure, WAN and the experiments. We are in the early stages of defining and standing up such a facility.
