Magic Castle: Terraforming the Cloud to Teach HPC
DescriptionAre you new to the world of HPC and are trying to find an affordable and accessible way that you can learn, practice and experiment? Do you miss the days when learning about HPC was connecting a few grey boxes together and configuring a cluster? Do you wish you could transfer all the complexity inherent in production HPC systems into an accessible sandbox environment, designed to facilitate teaching and experimental development? Stop wishing and come explore Magic Castle with this tutorial!
Magic Castle is an open-source software that replicates the HPC infrastructure experience via community or commercial cloud resources. It is easy to deploy and can be created in minutes. Once their cluster is deployed, the user is provided with a complete HPC cluster software environment including the scheduler, a data-transfer node, JupyterHub, and thousands of software applications compiled by experts and accessible via CVMFS. Since its initial public release in 2018, Magic Castle has been used for thousands of workshops and tutorials world-wide.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to deploy a virtual HPC cluster on your preferred cloud resource in minutes, and fully customize your environment to suit your application, whether that be training, development, or practice.
