Platform Computing has released the Platform HPC for ICE-Linux, a solution developed with HP that combines the Platform Computing technologies with the multi-systems management of HP Insight Control suite for Linux (ICE-Linux). The solution will allow customers to easily deploy HPC cluster environments using an out-of-the-box software solution, according to the company.

Platform HPC for ICE-Linux offers HP ProLiant and HP BladeSystem customers and resellers a path for incorporating HPC into IT infrastructures. The solution integrates a combination of Platform, HP and open source technologies, and builds on the established HP ProLiant system management technology, HP Systems Insight Manager (SIM) for monitoring and provisioning capabilities. HP SIM allows unified infrastructure management across HP platforms and provides HP ICE-Linux with the basis for insight, control, and ongoing optimization for expanding physical and virtual Linux environments. Platform HPC for ICE-Linux provides customers with tools to manage the software stack, including a toolkit for high-performance computing, a workload manager, resource management tools, and the remote control and power management functions of ICE-Linux.
 
Platform HPC for ICE-Linux allows customers to leverage existing HP investments and open source tools within Platform Open Cluster Stack (OCS) 5 to reduce the complexity and costs within IT infrastructures. Platform OCS 5 is based on the open source Project Kusu. Customers and resellers can minimize the disruption of implementing additional new technologies and services, cut costs associated with HPC cluster projects, and reduce the impact that monitoring and management tools have on performance as infrastructures scale.

The solution will be marketed and sold through HP and its resellers.
