HPC Architecture Ronin, currently at Nvidia. ex-MSFT, but forever a Crayon. I am proud of my home state (MN) and you will hear about it. All posts (especially the dumb ones) reflect my own positions and not that of my employer.

As hybrid #HPC + #AI + #Quantum workflows become more prevalent, orchestration of complex systems is becoming a key component of successful deployment. Looking forward to accelerating these capabilities for the open-source community.

NVIDIA Acquires Open-Source Workload Management Provider SchedMD

NVIDIA will continue to distribute SchedMD’s open-source, vendor-neutral Slurm software, ensuring wide availability for high-performance computing and AI.

I wrote up my notes from #SC25. Have a look: blog.glennklockwood.com/2025/12/sc25... I’ll keep picking away at the editing, but would love to hear more from others about what stood out to them. I wasn’t at the conference itself as much this years as in the past, so I know I missed a lot. #HPC

SC'25 recap

The annual SC conference was held last week, drawing over 16,000 registrants and 560 exhibitors to in St. Louis, Missouri to talk ab...

This is a great article that explains the philosophical innovations behind NERSC’s new supercomputer: science is not just about batch jobs anymore. Draw the good ideas from AI infra advances into #HPC as possible. Definitely worth reading. Also, they’re using GPFS instead of Lustre(!)

👇Orchestrate seamless scientific workflows Doudna (NERSC-10) needed to support data-driven workloads, large-scale simulation, and machine learning training–all running in parallel, often in orchestration #HPC #AI @nicolehemsoth.bsky.social @nersc.bsky.social

It's time to experience my first #GTC in person! Looking forward to learning lots and broaden my view of what people are doing to advance science and AI (or both). Any #HPC people want to meet up, just drop me a line.
