Hi everyone, This week’s OpenInfra Live episode is brought to you by the OpenStack community. When we talk about Large Scale, it usually refers to scaling out to hundreds of thousands of commodity nodes. But there is another dimension to Large Scale OpenStack: using OpenStack to build supercomputers to use in research and HPC. In this episode, operators of OpenStack supercomputers and HPC centers will discuss the unique challenges this use case brings.
