HPC Infrastructure
Scheduling, storage, and fabric working as one system — with the deep diagnostics HPC demands when they don't.
Every hard infrastructure problem, concentrated.
HPC concentrates shared state, parallel I/O, latency-sensitive networking, and multi-team access into one environment. AASHU's practice was built in exactly these environments: enterprise storage under load and clusters researchers trust.
What this capability covers.
Focused engineering with clear technical outcomes, documented implementation, and a path for the operating team to own the result.
Cluster design & deployment
Head nodes, compute fleets, and shared environments from provisioning to first job.
Slurm workload management
Partitions, QOS, fairshare, and accounting that keep queues fair and utilization high.
Parallel & enterprise storage
Lustre, IBM Spectrum Scale (GPFS), and WEKA for parallel I/O, plus NetApp and Dell PowerScale/OneFS integration for enterprise data services.
High-speed fabrics
InfiniBand and RoCE bring-up, subnet management, and fabric diagnostics.
MPI & user environments
MPI stacks, environment modules, scientific software, and multi-team access patterns that stay maintainable.
Health & diagnostics
Node health checks, fabric monitoring, and evidence-driven root-cause analysis under load.
What you receive.
From environment understanding to operational ownership.
Every engagement is scoped to the actual environment. The implementation changes by capability, but the operating discipline remains consistent.
Assess the environment
Map the current state, dependencies, constraints, risk, and operational ownership before making changes.
Engineer the implementation
Build the technical path with repeatable configuration, validation, and rollback appropriate to the scope.
Leave an operating model
Document the baseline, runbooks, lifecycle tasks, and handoff so the capability remains supportable.
