AWS ParallelCluster - HPC for the Cloud

Build Status Version

AWS ParallelCluster is an AWS supported Open Source cluster management tool that makes it easy for you to deploy and manage High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters in the AWS cloud. Built on the Open Source CfnCluster project, AWS ParallelCluster enables you to quickly build an HPC compute environment in AWS. It automatically sets up the required compute resources and a shared filesystem and offers a variety of batch schedulers such as AWS Batch, SGE, Torque, and Slurm. AWS ParallelCluster facilitates both quick start proof of concepts (POCs) and production deployments. You can build higher level workflows, such as a Genomics portal that automates the entire DNA sequencing workflow, on top of AWS ParallelCluster.

Quick Start

First, install the library:

$ pip install aws-parallelcluster

Next, configure your aws credentials and default region:

$ aws configure
AWS Access Key ID [None]: YOUR_KEY
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: YOUR_SECRET
Default region name [us-east-1]:
Default output format [None]:

Then, run pcluster configure:

$ pcluster configure
Cluster Template [default]:
Acceptable Values for AWS Region ID:
    ap-south-1
    ...
    us-west-2
AWS Region ID [us-east-1]:
VPC Name [myvpc]:
Acceptable Values for Key Name:
  keypair1
  keypair-test
  production-key
Key Name []:
Acceptable Values for VPC ID:
  vpc-1kd24879
  vpc-blk4982d
VPC ID []:
Acceptable Values for Master Subnet ID:
  subnet-9k284a6f
  subnet-1k01g357
  subnet-b921nv04
Master Subnet ID []:

Now you can create your first cluster;

$ pcluster create myfirstcluster

After the cluster finishes creating, log in:

$ pcluster ssh myfirstcluster

You can view the running compute hosts:

$ qhost

For more information on any of these steps see the Getting Started Guide.

Documentation

We've been working hard to greatly improve the Documentation, it's now published in 10 languages, one of the many benefits of being hosted on AWS Docs. Of most interest to new users is the Getting Started Guide.

If you have changes you would like to see in the docs, please either submit feedback using the feedback link at the bottom of each page or create an issue or pull request for the project at: https://github.com/awsdocs/aws-parallelcluster-user-guide.

Issues

Please open a GitHub issue for any feedback or issues: https://github.com/aws/aws-parallelcluster. There is also an active AWS HPC forum which may be helpful: https://forums.aws.amazon.com/forum.jspa?forumID=192.

Changes

CfnCluster to AWS ParallelCluster

In Version 2.0.0, we changed the name of CfnCluster to AWS ParallelCluster. With that name change we released several new features, which you can read about in the Change Log.
