论文摘要
Surf是荷兰教育与研究协作组织,并协调国家电子基础设施(Surf.nl)。为了加速科学发现,冲浪投资,运营和探索荷兰研究人员的高端IT解决方案。在此Adass 2019贡献中,我们介绍了我们在高性能和高吞吐量云计算方面的最新发展。这些发展与天文学尤其重要,因为该科学领域:(i)产生大型(PETABYTE尺寸的)数据收集,(ii)使用快速释放和部署方案为其软件,(III)需要灵活的交互式测试和分期环境,并且(IV)需要在多样化的数据结构上执行复杂的工作表。我们重点介绍了我们新的基于OpenStack的云基础架构层,并专注于Spider,这是Surf高吞吐量数据处理平台的新成员。
SURF is the collaborative ICT organisation for Dutch education & research and coordinates the national e-infrastructure (surf.nl). To accelerate scientific discovery, SURF invests in, operates and explores high-end IT solutions for and with researchers in the Netherlands. In this ADASS 2019 contribution we present our latest developments in high performance and high throughput cloud computing. These developments are particularly relevant for Astronomy, as this science domain: (i) generates large (Petabyte sized) data collections, (ii) uses rapid release and deployment schemes for their software, (iii) requires flexible and interactive test and staging environments and (iv) needs to execute complex workflows on diverse data structures. We highlight our new OpenStack-based, cloud infrastructure layer and focus on Spider, our new addition to SURF's high throughput data processing platforms.
