  • Towards Virtual Infiniband Clusters with Network and Performance
    Towards Virtual InfiniBand Clusters with Network and Performance Isolation Diplomarbeit von cand. inform. Marius Hillenbrand an der Fakultät für Informatik Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Frank Bellosa Betreuende Mitarbeiter: Dr.-Ing. Jan Stoess Dipl.-Phys. Viktor Mauch Bearbeitungszeit: 17. Dezember 2010 – 16. Juni 2011 KIT – Universität des Landes Baden-Württemberg und nationales Forschungszentrum in der Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft www.kit.edu Abstract Today’s high-performance computing clusters (HPC) are typically operated and used by a sin- gle organization. Demand is fluctuating, resulting in periods of underutilization or overload. In addition, the static OS installation on cluster nodes leaves hardly any room for customization. The concepts of cloud computing transferred to HPC clusters — that is, an Infrastructure-as- a-Service (IaaS) model for HPC computing — promises increased flexibility and cost savings. Elastic virtual clusters provide precisely that capacity that suits actual demand and workload. Elasticity and flexibility come at a price, however: Virtualization overhead, jitter, and additional OS background activity can severely reduce parallel application performance. In addition, HPC workloads typically require distinct cluster interconnects, such as InfiniBand, because of the features they provide, mainly low latency. General-purpose clouds with virtualized Ethernet fail to fulfill these requirements. In this work, we present a novel architecture for HPC clouds. Our architecture comprises the facets node virtualization, network virtualization, and cloud management. We raise the question, whether a commodity hypervisor (the kernel-based virtual machine, KVM, on Linux) can be transformed to provide virtual cluster nodes — that is, virtual machines (VMs) intended for HPC workloads. We provide a concept for cluster network virtualization, using the example of InfiniBand, that provides each user with the impression of using a dedicated network.

Martin Swany, Ph.D ABSTRACT ARCHITECTURAL PRINCIPLES AND EXPERIMENTATION OF DISTRIBUTED HIGH PERFORMANCE VIRTUAL CLUSTERS Andrew J. Younge Department of Computer Science Doctor of Philosophy With the advent of virtualization and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), the broader scientific computing community is considering the use of clouds for their scientific computing needs. This is due to the relative scalability, ease of use, advanced user environment customization abilities, and the many novel computing paradigms available for data-intensive applications. However, a notable performance gap exists between IaaS and typical high performance computing (HPC) resources. This has limited the applicability of IaaS for many potential users, not only for those who look to leverage the benefits of virtualization with traditional scientific computing applications, but also for the growing number of big data scientists whose platforms are unable to build on HPCs advanced hardware resources. Concurrently, we are at the forefront of a convergence in infrastructure between Big Data and HPC, the implications of which suggest that a unified distributed computing architecture could provide computing and storage ca- pabilities for both differing distributed systems use cases.

When we talk about the cloud computing technology and its characteristics like high availability or pool of resources or even when we talk about different instances in cloud computing, we should not forget that how it can achieve in cloud technology. The virtualization technology (server, network and storage virtualization technologies) is not a new concept in hardware and software development, it used for developing new concepts like cloud computing technology in an IT global application. Keywords: Cloud Computing; Virtualization technology; Server Virtualization; Network Virtualization; Storage Virtualization. I. INTRODUCTION In these days all the software developers are creating packages based on the cloud computing technology, and for cloud providers, it is a good opportunity to use strobe bond systems with low cost [1]. Cloud computing is an internet based computing with the ability to share resources (hardware, software, storage, network) on-demand and dynamically, but most of the IT people do not pay attention to one point and it is the evolution of cloud computing could not be possible without existing of other technologies like virtualization technology. We can see the footprint of virtualization technology in most of the major abilities which provides by cloud computing technology.

In parallel, large clusters/data-centres are clusters/data-centres to improve the performance of data extensively relying on virtualization as a tool for improved transfers between applications running on different nodes of a utilization of system resources (e.g., memory, disk, CPU) and computing system.

  • The Case for Physical Memory Pools: a Vision Paper
    The Case for Physical Memory Pools: A Vision Paper B Heather Craddock( ), Lakshmi Prasanna Konudula, Kun Cheng, and G¨okhan Kul Division of Physical and Computational Sciences, Delaware State University, 1200 N DuPont Hwy, Dover, DE 19901, USA {hcraddock,lkonudula,kcheng14,gkul}@desu.edu http://delawaresec.com Abstract. The cloud is a rapidly expanding and increasingly prominent component of modern computing. Monolithic servers limit the flexibil- ity of cloud-based systems, however, due to static memory limitations. Developments in OS design, distributed memory systems, and address translation have been crucial in aiding the progress of the cloud. In this paper, we discuss recent developments in virtualization, OS design and distributed memory structures with regards to their current impact and relevance to future work on eliminating memory limits in cloud com- puting. We argue that creating physical memory pools is essential for cheaper and more efficient cloud computing infrastructures, and we iden- tify research challenges to implement these structures. Keywords: Cloud computing · Memory · Operating systems · Virtualization 1 Introduction The growth of cloud computing is fuelled by the rise of big data and the global requirements for the inter-connectivity of computing resources. The cloud allows for data and resources to be shared on demand to connected hardware devices, reducing the need for reliance on purely local resources. According to the Data Never Sleeps report, 1.7 MB of data is expected to be created every second for every single person on earth by 2020 [6]. With such a vast amount of data being generated, it is imperative that hardware and software architectures are modified or created to manage modern requirements.

What is a data model? List the types of data model used. A database model is the theoretical foundation of a database and fundamentally determines in which manner data can be stored, organized, and manipulated in a database system. It thereby defines the infrastructure offered by a particular database system. The most popular example of a database model is the relational model. Types of data model used Hierarchical model Network model Relational model Entity-relationship Object-relational model Object model 2. Give the levels of data abstraction? Physical level Logical level View level 3. Distinguish between Hadoop 1.x and Hadoop 2.x In Hadoop 1.x, Map Reduce is responsible for both processing and cluster management whereas in Hadoop 2.x processing is taken care of by other processing models and YARN is responsible for cluster management. Hadoop 2.x scales better when compared to Hadoop 1.x with close to 10000 nodes per cluster. Hadoop 1.x has single point of failure problem and whenever the Name Node fails it has to be recovered manually. However, in case of Hadoop 2.x Stand By Name Node overcomes the problem and whenever the Name Node fails it is configured for automatic recovery 4. Define data model? A data model is a collection of conceptual tools for describing data, data relationships, data semantics and consistency constraints. 5.
