Univa UD, a provider of cloud management software products, today announced UniCluster 5.0, a major new version of Univa’s infrastructure and workload management software stack that provides the underpinnings of Univa’s cloud computing solutions.
UniCluster 5.0 features:
- Truly heterogeneous support: With UniCluster 5.0, a single cluster can support OpenSolaris and Linux compute nodes with a common management framework. Further, software profiles can be created and deployed for multiple operating systems (OS) and computing environments. Thus, users can create one Kit for deployment across resources running a variety of OS’s and also across multiple hardware profiles.
- Scalability: UniCluster 5.0 easily scales to over 7,000 nodes through subordinate installer nodes.
- Robust Web-based API: UniCluster offers a unique, well defined web-based API to allow interfacing with the UniCluster core framework.
- Integrated management console: System configuration is consolidated into a single management application.
- OpenSolaris support: UniCluster 5.0 is a native OpenSolaris version, functionally equivalent to the Linux
UniCluster provides the framework for Univa’s cloud computing solutions. Used as a building block for HPC clusters in internal or external computing environments, it is the open source component of Univa’s infrastructure management suite. UniCluster features Sun Grid Engine software and Oracle Enterprise Linux, and is the leading solution for many top commercial companies who are migrating from expensive job schedulers in Aerospace, EDA, Oil and Gas and Life Sciences.
