The Grid Computing Competence Center (GC3) is pleased to announce
release 1.0.1 of Elasticluster.
Elasticluster is a Python tool to automate the creation, configuration
and management of clusters of virtual machines hosted on a cloud. It
can provision clusters on Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud EC2 and
compatible ones, like OpenStack.
Elasticluster leverages the Ansible automation framework to deploy and
configure software on the virtual cluster. Any Ansible playbook can
in principle be used with Elasticluster; the default distribution
contains recipes for:
* Hadoop clusters with HDFS
* HPC clusters based on SLURM, SGE, or PBS
* storage clusters running Ceph, GlusterFS or PVFS
A video demoes the basic features of Elasticluster setting up a SLURM
compute cluster:
The code is available from PyPI and GitHub. If you are interested,
please visit http://gc3-uzh-ch.github.io/elasticluster/ or get in
touch with us at (e-mail address removed).
Kind regards,
(for the Grid Computing Competence Center)
