access and resources management costs and usage management infrastructure as code sdk languages frameworks and tools home documentation compute compute engine guides send feedback overview of hpc clusters with enhanced cluster management capabilities stay organized with collections save and categorize content based on your preferences to create the infrastructure for tightly coupled applications that scale across multiple nodes you can create a cluster of virtual machine vm instances this guide provides a high level overview of the key considerations and steps to configure a cluster of virtual machine vm instances for high performance computing hpc workloads using dense resource allocation with h4d compute engine adds support for running massive hpc workloads by treating an entire cluster of vm instances as a single computer using topology aware placement of vms lets you access many instances within a single networking superblock and minimizes network latency you can also configure cloud rdma on these instances to maximize inter node communication performance which is crucial for tightly coupled hpc workloads note this type of configuration relies on similar features and concepts as those documented in the ai hypercomputer documentation for accelerator optimized vms with gpus you create these hpc vm clusters with h4d by reserving blocks of capacity instead of individual resources using blocks of capacity for your cluster enables enhanced cluster management capabilities hpc clusters with h4d instances can be created either with or without enhanced cluster management capabilities if you don t require enhanced cluster management capabilities features with your h4d hpc cluster or if you want to create hpc clusters using a machine series other than h4d then use the following instructions for creating hpc instances or clusters managed instance groups migs bulk api create an hpc ready vm instance cluster terminology when working with blocks of capacity the following terms are used block link a collection of sub blocks that are interconnected with a non blocking fabric providing a high bandwidth interconnect between all hosts in the cluster cluster link a collection of blocks interconnected by a high speed network fabric a cluster can scale to thousands of cpus for running large scale hpc workloads each cluster is globally unique communication across different blocks adds only one additional hop maintaining high performance and predictability even at a massive scale cluster level metadata is also available to orchestrators for intelligent large scale job placement cluster toolkit link an open source tool offered by google that simplifies the configuration and deployment for clusters that use either slurm or google kubernetes engine you use predefined blueprints to build a deployment folder that is based on the blueprint you can modify blueprints or the deployment folder to customize deployments and your software stack you then use terraform or packer to run the commands generated by cluster toolkit to deploy the cluster dense deployment link a resource request that allocates your compute instance resources physically close to each other to minimize network hops and optimize for the lowest latency network fabric link a network fabric provides high bandwidth low latency connectivity across all blocks and google cloud services in a cluster jupiter is google s data center network architecture that uses software defined networking and optical circuit switches to evolve the network and optimize its performance node or host link a single physical server machine in the data center each host has its associated compute resources such as cpus memory and network interfaces the number and configuration of these compute resources depend on the machine type compute instances are provisioned on top of a physical host orchestrator link an orchestrator automates the management of your clusters with an orchestrator you don t have to manage each vm instance in the cluster an orchestrator such as slurm or google kubernetes engine gke handles tasks like job queueing resource allocation auto scaling with gke and other day to day cluster management tasks sub blocks link a group of hosts and associated connectivity hardware that are located on a single physical rack a top of rack tor switch connects these hosts enabling extremely efficient single hop communication between any two cpus within the sub block cloud rdma facilitates this direct communication overview of cluster creation process with h4d vms to create hpc clusters on reserved blocks of capacity you must complete the following steps review available provisioning models choose a consumption option and obtain capacity choose a deployment option and orchestrator choose the operating system or cluster image create your cluster provisioning models for vm and cluster creation when creating vm instances you can use the provisioning models described in compute engine instances provisioning models to create a tightly coupled h4d instances you must use one of the following provisioning models to obtain the necessary resources for creating compute instances reservation bound you can reserve resources at a discounted price for a future date and duration at the start of your reservation period you can use the reserved resources to create vms or clusters you have exclusive access to your reserved resources for the reservation period flex start you can request discounted resources for up to seven days compute engine makes best effort attempts to schedule the provisioning of your requested resources as soon as they re available you have exclusive access to your obtained resources for your requested period spot based on availability you can immediately obtain deeply discounted resources however compute engine might stop or delete the vm instances at any time to reclaim capacity reservation bound provisioning model the reservation bound provisioning model links your created vm instances to the capacity that you previously reserved when you reserve capacity compute engine creates an empty reservation then at the reservation start time the following occurs compute engine adds your reserved resources to the reservation you have exclusive access to the reserved capacity until the reservation end time google cloud charges you for the reserved capacity until the end of your reservation period whether you use the capacity or not you can then use the reserved resources to create vms without additional charges you only pay for resources that aren t included in the reservation such as disks or ip addresses you can reserve resources for as many vms as you like for as long as you like for a future date then you can use the reserved resources to create and run vms until the end of the reservation period if you reserve resources for one year or longer then you must purchase and attach a resource based commitment to provision resources using the reservation bound provisioning model see for long running large scale distributed workloads with densely allocated resources reserve capacity through your account team for short running up to 90 days distributed workloads with densely allocated resources future reservation requests in calendar mode you can use reservation bound provisioning with h4d instances by specifying the reservation bound provisioning model when creating individual vms a hpc cluster or a group of vms flex start provisioning model to run short duration workloads that require densely allocated resources you can request compute resources for up to seven days by using flex start whenever resources are available compute engine creates your requested number of vms you can stop standalone flex start vms but you can t stop flex start vms that a managed instance group mig creates through resize requests the flex start vms exist until you delete them or until compute engine deletes the vms at the end of their run duration flex start is ideal for workloads that can start at any time the flex start provisioning model provisions resources from a secure capacity pool so the allocated resources are densely allocated to minimize network latency when you add flex start vms to a managed instance group mig by using resize requests the mig creates the vms all at once this approach helps you avoid unnecessary charges for partial capacity that compute engine might deliver while you wait for the full capacity needed to start your workload you can use flex start provisioning with h4d instances using any available deployment model spot provisioning model to run fault tolerant workloads you can obtain compute resources immediately based on availability you get resources at the lowest price possible however compute engine might stop or delete the created spot vms at any time to reclaim capacity this process is called preemption spot vms are ideal for workloads where interruptions are acceptable such as batch processing high performance computing hpc data analytics continuous integration and continuous deployment ci cd media encoding you can use spot vms with any machine type except a4x x4 and bare metal machine types dense allocation depends on resource availability to help ensure a closer allocation you can apply a compact placement policy to the spot vms note spot vms are not covered by any service level agreement and are excluded from the compute engine sla you can use spot vms with the following dense deployment options create a hpc slurm cluster with h4d bulk create hpc optimized instances with h4d create a hpc mig with h4d machine series choose a consumption option and obtain capacity consumption options determine how resources are obtained for your cluster to create a cluster that uses enhanced cluster management capabilities you must request blocks of capacity for a dense deployment the following table summarizes the key differences between the consumption options for blocks of capacity note you can also request a future reservation for more than 90 days if you need to reserve this capacity see reserve capacity through your account team consumption option future reservations for capacity blocks future reservations for up to 90 days in calendar mode flex start spot workload
