Red Hat HPC Linux Cometh

“RED HAT WILL announce its first high performance computing
optimised distro, the Red Hat HPC on 7 October. The distro is a
step forward from the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux for HPC
Compute Nodes.

“The current offerings, Red Hat Enterprise Linux HPC Compute
Node subscription, are based on the standard distro but tailored
for compute nodes running HPC workloads. The subscription is
available for HPC compute nodes used in clusters with four or more
systems. Users access compute nodes via head node servers, which of
course use the more expensive Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES or
AS.

“Instead, the upcoming Red Hat HPC is actually a fully
integrated software stack using combined technologies from Red Hat
and Platform Computing.”
