Fugaku-NEXT design report details hybrid AI/HPC scheduling and fast storage

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

A design report for Fugaku-NEXT, a successor to the Fugaku supercomputer, has been released, detailing ambitious plans for its architecture. The system will integrate Kubernetes for AI workloads alongside traditional HPC schedulers like Slurm and PBS. It also features a high-throughput, two-tier file system exceeding 100 TB/s, with VAST, WEKA, and Scality identified as key technologies for the all-flash tier. AI

IMPACT Details a future supercomputer architecture integrating AI and HPC workloads, potentially accelerating research.

RANK_REASON The cluster discusses a design report for a future supercomputer, which falls under research and development.
