Moab Adaptive HPC Suite changes a node’s operating system on the fly in response to workload needs. As an intelligent metascheduler, Moab determines when the OS mix should be modified for optimal efficiency, based on defined policies and service-level agreements and on current and projected workload. When specified conditions are met, Moab automatically triggers the OS change using a site’s preferred OS-modification technology, such as dual boot, diskful, or stateless (diskfree) provisioning, or virtualization (using Hyper-V within Windows HPC Server 2008, VMware, or XenWare).

Moab Cluster Builder is an integrated out-of-the-box cluster deployment and management solution based on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 and Moab Cluster Suite®. This enterprise-class, fully supported HPC solution deploys and configures a complete cluster environment quickly and easily, and provides the ease-of-use administrator and user interfaces to make it ideal for Windows or Linux users.

Moab Utility/Hosting Suite allows organizations to dynamically generate whole compute environments–including compute, service, node, network, storage and license resources–to meet changing workload levels, cluster health and resource failures. Moab creates a virtualized pool of all resources and then activates disk-full, diskless, and virtual provisioning technologies to adapt the resources based on workload and specific user or group needs. It fully automates resource allocation by matching workload to the optimal set of resources. Moab also provides advance reservations and ensures that Quality of Service and SLA guarantees are always met for both internal and external customers.
