Abstract

Clouds are rapidly joining high-performance computing systems, clusters, and grids as viable platforms for scientific exploration and discovery. As a result, understanding application formulations and usage modes that are meaningful in such a hybrid infrastructure, and how application workflows can effectively utilize it, is critical. Here, three hybrid HPC, grid, and cloud cyberinfrastructure usage modes are explored: HPC in the Cloud, HPC plus Cloud, and HPC as a Service. The article presents illustrative scenarios in each case and outlines benefits, limitations, and research challenges.

Overview: Hybrid HPC and Cloud Usage Modes
