PBS Works HPC Workload Management
PBS Works workload management suite simplifies the administration and use of HPC clusters, clouds and supercomputing environments.
PBS Works™ is the award-winning solution for comprehensive, secure workload management for high-performance computing (HPC) environments. This integrated suite simplifies the use of HPC while improving resource utilization and ROI. PBS Works is the preferred solution for many of the largest, most complex clusters and supercomputers in existence – and is the choice for smaller organizations needing HPC solutions that are easy to adopt and use. Backed by Altair, a global software leader, PBS Works offers unparalleled service and support from a partner companies can rely on.
Nor-Tech has extensive experience installing and configuring PBS Professional for their customers, including those running commercial CAE software, where the licenses are tied to CPU core counts. Nor-Tech works with Altair to implement Compute Manager for commercial customers who want to manage license resources and/or hide the complexities of job submission and management. Nor-tech and Altair also work together to implement Display Manager for customers that want to centralize their high-end GPU and visualization resources and utilize web-based remote visualization. Those customers enjoy peace of mind by keeping their proprietary data within the walls of their site.
Engineered to make HPC easy, fast, and reliable, the PBS Works product suite includes:
PBS Professional
