A modern approach for on-premise and cloud-native performance-intensive computing

Fuzzball is an API-driven, container-forward platform that modernizes traditional HPC work and simplifies the deployment of any large, distributed analytical workload. It delivers the the security, performance, and convenience expected for scale-out production software and infrastructure.

Quickstart guide

Build with Fuzzball

Fuzzball takes an engineer and researcher-first approach and provides intuitive tools to build and deploy without expertise in infrastructure and lowers the barrier for all performance intensive computing.

Intuitive Web UI and Portable Code

Fuzzball provides an intuitive web UI that allows anyone to design and deploy complex analytical workflows. The drag/drop interface can eliminate complex command-line interactions and the YAML-based spec can be edited directly by power users.

Automated and Observable Data Management

Fuzzball automates and secures data replication and storage volume management and provides full traceability. It simplifies ingress and egress with full logging so that you can focus on your research and not the difficult tasks of data movement.

Deploy with Fuzzball

Fuzzball abstracts away infrastructure and efficiently runs your jobs on-premise, in the cloud, edge … anywhere.

Dynamic Provisioning and Orchestration

You define compute resource pools and the Fuzzball control plane analyzes the data, compute and storage requirements to automate the provisioning and orchestration of the right resources.

Turn-key Embedded Applications and Templates

Fuzzball makes it simple to embed and run applications with Workflow templates that can be built and designed for any workflow or application.

Federate with Fuzzball

Fuzzball will deploy and optimize placement of your workflows across disparate clusters that reside in multiple regions or even across on-premise and cloud providers. This optimizes your environment based on data, compute and storage requirements and gives you the flexibility to develop in the cloud and deploy on premise or develop locally and deploy to the cloud for scale.

Fuzzball comes with integrations for GPUs, TPUs, and architectures with no custom drivers or connectors needed.

Fuzzball in action:

Building workflows with ease

Fuzzball’s web UI is designed for usability and standardization. Anyone can build, manage, and reuse workflows with just a few clicks:

Step 1: Create a new workflow

Import from a YAML file, copy a previous workflow, or start from scratch with a built-in template.

Step 2: Define your jobs

Parameterize and customize every step of your workflow to match the needs of your HPC job.

Step 3: Customize your environment

Specify infrastructure requirements, from instance sizing to storage volumes, ensuring your workflow runs efficiently.

Step 4: Run, share, and reuse

Fuzzball workflows are modular and portable. You can run them on any Fuzzball clusters. Create templates, save your workflows, and share them with your team.

The data and results from one workflow can be the input to another workflow. Chain, sequence, and customize your workloads all within Fuzzball.

Modern Research Demands Modern Infrastructure

Modern research has extended beyond traditional HPC platforms into emerging AI and computing platforms and today's research demands computing power that legacy platforms simply cannot provide.

Fuzzball combines the decades of performance and optimization research from traditional HPC, and combines that into the next generation of computing architecture making it suitable for modern performance-intensive infrastructure.

Focus

Focus on your research and not the infrastructure needed to run your jobs.

Freedom

Deploy your compute intense work anywhere without special systems expertise.

Modern

Employ modern infrastructure so you can scale and deploy more efficiently.
