Status of accelerated computing in Clouds
Need modification/support at all levels
- Chipset : HW virtualization support (otherwise some limitation)
- OS level: correct kernel configuration for the accelerators
- Hypervisor: configuration pass-through, vGPU
- CMFs: VM start, scheduler
- FedCloud facilities: accounting, information discovery
- Application: VM images with correct drivers for specific chipsets
Accelerators
GPGPU (General-Purpose computing on Graphical Processing Units)
NVIDIA GPU/Tesla/GRID, AMD Radeon/FirePro, Intel HD Graphics,...
Virtualization using VGA pass-through, vGPU (GPU partitioning) - NVIDIA GRID accelerators
