DescriptionClusters are widely used for production applications to many of the solution requirements in HPC worldwide. These clusters are usually homogeneous scalable architectures chosen by HPC systems specialists with optimal performance for a limited set of batch-scheduled codes, located to match their institutions facilities, and deployed so that they are most immediately available to co-located users, their data sources, and sinks. As HPC research and analytic computing capabilities are spreading in academia, industry, commerce, and government; users need greater flexibility, access to a wider variety of infrastructure, clusters, codes, interconnects, and filesystems with accessible yet with secure remote networking all geared to meet users' real-time-to-solution requirements. Members of the world wide OpenStack scientific computing community will debate and describe the efficacy of the methods, middleware, tools, and operation modes they are using to sustain users performance expectations and meet their time-to-solution requirements.
