4 WHAT IS HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING (HPC)? Industry-standard term to describe really fast computers typically much faster than general purpose computers Performance measured in Floating Point Operations per Second (FLOPS) Typically refers to a cluster of independent computers interconnected via highbandwidth, low-latency network & high performance storage ( supercomputer ) Often used to describe massively parallel (multi-core, multi-computer) workloads Usually implies a scheduling & resource management software layer 4
5 WHAT IS ADVANCED RESEARCH COMPUTING (ARC)? HPC! CPUs! GPUs! Accelerators! Big Data! Cloud! RDM! BBQ! Computational research requirements exceeding typical desktop computer WestGrid everything beyond a standard desktop workstation, which includes cloud, supercomputers / high performance computing (HPC), data management, and data storage, all in support of research At UBC An Institutionally-dedicated service for researchers across all disciplines working on questions that have large data and computational needs 5
6 WHAT IS DIGITAL RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE (DRI)? HPC is a component of ARC, which is a component of DRI kindasortamaybe? Innovation, Science and Economic Development (ISED) Canada terminology Leadership Council on Digital Research Infrastructure (LCDRI) Compute Canada & Regional Partners (WestGrid, etc.) Canada s National Research & Education Network - CANARIE, BCNET, etc. Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL / ABRC) & Portage Network 6

8 WHERE AND HOW OF ARC IN BC AND CANADA Photo Credit: DHX Media 8
9 WHERE DOES ADVANCED RESEARCH COMPUTING HAPPEN? Locally In research labs & units Institutionally Departments, Centres, Institutes, Interdisciplinary orgs, etc. Provincially Clinical academic campuses, regional centres, etc. Regionally WestGrid, Compute Ontario, Calcul Quebec, ACENET Nationally Compute Canada, CANARIE, etc. 9
10 WHERE DOES FUNDING FOR ARC COME FROM? The Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) British Columbia Knowledge Development Fund (BCKDF) Other granting organizations (CIHR, NSERC, SSHRC) Institutions Universities, Centres, Institutes, etc. Charities, Donations, Private Partners & Commercial Partnerships Government of Canada Budget 2018 ~$572M investment in DRI 10
11 WESTGRID: PAST AND PRESENT WestGrid is a regional consortia of ARC providers and innovators in western Canada Born from MACI, circa 2001 Funding from CFI Member institutions from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia Recently incorporated as a non-profit 11
12 COMPUTE CANADA: PAST AND PRESENT Compute Canada is a non-profit organization and national provider of DRI in Canada Formed circa 2006 as consortia of HPC consortiums with funding from CFI and NSERC Compute Canada is a consortia of regional partners (WestGrid, Compute Ontario, Calcul Québec and ACENET) Arbutus launched in 2016, followed by Cedar and Graham in 2017 and Niagara in 2018 ~35 member institutions, ~200 staff New Interim CEO as of February 2018, Robbin Tourangeau 12
13 NATIONAL ARC SITES IN CANADA University of Victoria (BC) Arbutus (7640 cores, ~78TB RAM, 500TB) Simon Fraser University (BC) Cedar (58416 cores, 584 GPUs, ~312TB RAM, ~15PB HDD) University of Waterloo (Ontario) Graham (32530 cores, 320 GPUs, ~170TB RAM,? HDD) University of Toronto (Ontario) Niagara (60000 cores, ~280TB RAM, ~10PB HDD) École de Technologie Supérieure (Quebec) Béluga (RFP out now!) Sick Kids Hospital (Ontario) HPC4Health (~7000 cores) 13
14 COMPUTE CANADA: ELEVATOR PITCH National service Four National systems available today (more coming) Available to all academic researchers in Canada free of charge Rapid Access Service (RAS) for immediate access Resource Allocation Competition (RAC) for annual allocations of significant resources 14
