Hardware
This cluster comprises currently two servers installed at Taguspark campus with the following specs:
- DELL PowerEdge R750XA Server
- 2 x Intel® Xeon® Gold 6330 2GHz
- 1TB RAM
- 8 x 960GB SSD
- 4 x NVIDIA Ampere A100
Software
The servers are accessible through an OpenStack interface, on top of which VM instances are created and managed, together with storage and networking.
Link: https://vmcloud.tecnico.ulisboa.pt/
Instances have by default an ephemeral filesystem mounted in /mnt, which access is faster than the main filesystem, but is destroyed when the instance is deleted.
