Multiple Compute Environments

[laderast]

Proposed Domain
Specify where should the new content should go (Data Science, Scientific Computing, Hutch Data Core), including a recommended subsection.

• Multiple environments - how to address?
  • Rhino / Gizmo
  • Cluster w/ Chorus partition

Content Summary
Summarize the topic you'd like to be added, or include a URL with content you would like to be expanded.

Local Content Expert(s)
Suggest any Fred Hutch based experts who we might ask to contribute (GitHub ID is preferred, but name of someone and/or desired expertise is ok too).

Matrix of differences - what works in which environment?

Put bounds around differences.

• Need to update gizmo references - make index?
• Node types: J, K, Harmony
• OS differences

Modules available will be different in different environments: https://sciwiki.fredhutch.org/scicomputing/compute_scientificSoftware/

[laderast]

• Available Modules (are they different from one environment)?
• R / Python modules

List of pages to modify:

• https://sciwiki.fredhutch.org/scicomputing/compute_environments/
• https://sciwiki.fredhutch.org/dasldemos/computational_rank/
• Which computing environment to use?
  • https://sciwiki.fredhutch.org/scicomputing/compute_platforms/

Create subdirectories for different environments

Which Computing Environment Do I Need?

• Dependent on where your data is (i.e., /fast/, AWS S3, etc.)
• What format is the data in?
• What software do you need?
• What kind of compute you need (GPU or general purpose)

Organized into Gizmo / Chorus pages

• Access / Login System (rhino vs. other system)
• Software Modules
• GPU Considerations

Pathways Model:

• Nomachine
• SSH
• Gizmo
• Chorus
