The webinar series “Towards a new generation of Big Data & HPC”, organized by the BigHPC project, has a new webinar scheduled. This time, for November 17, Wednesday, at 3pm.

Entitled “Monitoring in BigHPC: Lessons Learned”, the session will be about – as is easily perceived by the title – the monitoring mechanisms of the BigHPC platform.The BigHPC project developed a framework to support Big Data applications in HPC environments. LIP's contributions were focused exactly on monitoring and quality assurance.

During the webinar, those responsible for managing the platform developed in this project will have the opportunity to analyze the systems and present the results obtained in real HPC environments. The added value of the platform in identifying software and hardware anomalies will also be highlighted – which is essential for controlling the work to be performed as well as the operation of the platform.

From the users’ perspective, this session will be particularly useful to better understand the advantages that the platform brings. This system will allow them to more clearly identify the nature of the jobs they submit or, in other words, quantify the resources they actually need in the real infrastructure to perform their jobs.

The webinar will be conducted by Júlio Costa, data analyst at Wavecom – involved in the development of the platform – and will be moderated by Rohan Kadekodi, from UT Austin.
