  2. CloudBroker Platform • Web application store for the deployment and execution of scientific and technical software in the cloud • On demand, pay per use, browser / programmatic / command-line access, cross-domain • Uses infrastructure as a service (IaaS) from cloud providers • Offers platform as a service (PaaS) for software vendors and software as a service (SaaS) for end users • Easy to use, speeds up time to market, no need for own high performance computing infrastructure, OpEx instead of CapEx

  6. User Management • User roles: admin, advanced, standard • Software visibility: private, protected, public

  7. Typical JobSubmission Lifecycle • Prepayment (user) or monthly invoice (platform) • Software and resource selection and job creation (user) • Data file upload (user) to cloud storage (platform) • Job submission (user) • Compute instance startup or reuse (platform) • Data file upload from cloud storage to master node (platform) • Computations on worker nodes (platform, application) • Data file download from master node to cloud storage (platform) • Compute instance shutdown or reuse (platform) • Data file download (user) from cloud storage (platform) • Accounting and billing (platform)

  8. Dynamic Cluster in the Cloud • Communication to and between nodes via SSH • Instance information in dynamically generated node file (MPICH / MPICH2 / Open MPI format, more formats can be added upon request) • File sharing via NFS can be enabled

  9. Application Requirements

  10. Ported Applications More applications continuously to be addedApplications can also be added by users

  11. Typical SoftwareDeployment Lifecycle • Generation of installation script (vendor) • Creation and configuration of software (vendor) • Adding of executables (vendor) • Adding of installation package (vendor), including installation script and software package, if needed • Deploying of software (vendor) • Checking of software and installation script (manager) • Generation of deployments (manager) • Running of special deployment jobs (platform) • Checking and activation of deployments (manager) • Activation of software (manager/vendor) • Publication of software (vendor) • Running of jobs (user)

  12. Clients and APIs

  13. Public Platform • https://platform.cloudbroker.com • First preview version published in fall 2010, current version 1.0.4 • Available clouds: • Amazon EC2 and S3 (computing and storage) • IBM SmartCloud Enterprise (only computing currently, storage upcoming) • Available applications: • BLAST, AutoDock, Gromacs, X! Tandem, OpenFOAM • Additional applications privately or upon request • Software checking before deployment • Standard pricing: • Cloud resource costs + software costs + CloudBroker surcharges • Production version, monitored and maintained • Help desk under platform@cloudbroker.com • Also available as hosted and in-house version

  14. Protein Modelling Example Case • Setup: • Collaboration between IBM, CloudBroker and the Institute of Molecular Systems Biology (IMSB) at ETH Zurich • Goal is to better understand the mechanisms of infectious diseases • For the example of the Strepto-coccus bacterium, predict the 3D structures of important proteins from their 1D sequences by means of the Rosetta software • Use the CloudBroker Platform to manage the calculations on top of IBM SmartCloud Enterprise compute and storage resources • Results: • 249 target proteins modeled • More than 1’000 CPUs used in parallel • 36’000 jobs automatically managed • Almost 250‘000 CPU hours consumed • 2.3 Mio 3D protein structure models created • Less than two weeks runtime

  15. Further Examples • ASCOMP TransAT (http://www.ascomp.ch) • Computational fluid dynamics • Collaboration with HSR • Microsoft Silverlight-based web browser UI • KNIME (http://www.knime.org) • Konstanz Information Miner • Workflow framework • Computational chemistry example case • SCI-BUS (http://www.sci-bus.eu) • SCIentific gateway Based User Support • EU FP7 project • 11+6 user communities from different domains

  16. CloudBroker in SCI-BUS

  17. Goals in SCI-BUS • Provide connection to open and commercial cloud infrastructures for the scientific gateways • Allow scientific gateways to charge for their services via the CloudBroker Platform • Integrate CloudBroker Platform as new distributed computing infrastructure (DCI) in WS-PGRADE / gUSE

  18. Features to Be Implemented • Already available: • Development and testing platform for SCI-BUS • Extended CloudBroker Platform REST and Java APIs • Integration of CloudBroker Platform in WS-PGRADE / gUSE under DCI Bridge, security and job settings • Possibility to configure and run CloudBroker jobs from within WS-PGRADE / gUSE workflows • In preparation: • Commercial components in WS-PGRADE / gUSE for user mapping, billing and cost display • Possibility to register own cloud resources in the CloudBroker Platform • Adapters to open cloud infrastructures (OpenStack, OpenNebula, Eucalyptus)

  19. Acknowledgements • CloudBroker GmbH: • Maxim Malgin, Ann Mikhailova • ScaleTools AG: • Nicola Fantini, Andrey Sereda • MTA SZTAKI: • Peter Kacsuk, Zoltan Farkas, Akos Hajnal • … and many others
