Adaptive Computing Unveils Moab 8.0 to Enhance Technical Computing Environments and Big WorkflowLEIPZIG, Germany --(Business Wire)-- Adaptive Computing (News - Alert), the company that powers many of the world's largest private/hybrid cloud and technical computing environments with its Moab optimization and scheduling software, today announced Moab HPC Suite-Enterprise Edition 8.0 (Moab 8.0) will be generally available within 30 days with sneak peak demos in booth No. 710 at the International Supercomputing Conference (ISC) 2014 from June 22-26, 2014 in Leipzig, Germany. The new features include significant updates for managing and optimizing workloads across technical computing environments. Moab HPC Suite-Enterprise Edition 8.0 also enhances Big Workflow by processing intensive simulations and big data analysis to accelerate insights. "This latest version of Moab underscores our commitment to innovation in the technical computing sectors," said Rob Clyde, CEO at Adaptive Computing. "HPC's powerful engine is at the core of extracting insights from big data, and these updates will enable enterprises to capitalize on HPC's convergence with cloud and big data to garner faster insights for data-driven decisions." Adaptive's Big Workflow solution delivers dynamic scheduling, provisioning and management of multi-step/multi-application services across HPC, cloud and big data environments. Moab 8.0 bolsters Big Workflow's core services: unifying data center resources, optimizing the analysis process and guaranteeing services to the business. Key updates to Moab 8.0 include the following: Unify Data Center Resources Adaptive Computing continues to innovate new ways to break down siloed environments to speed the time to discovery. With Adaptive's Big Workflow innovations, users can utilize all available resources across multiple platforms, environments and locations, managing them as a single ecosystem. Moab 8.0 enhances resource unification such as its new OpenStack Integration - available for selected beta, offers virtual and physical resource provisioning for Information as a Service and Platform as a Service. "In our end-user surveys, Adaptive Computing's Moab and TORQUE, were the top two job management packages named, with 40% of the mentions combined," comments Addison Snell, CEO of Intersect360 Research. "Organizations are investing in big data and HPC; more than half the respondents in our most recent study were spending at least 10% of their IT budgets on Big Data projects. With Adaptive's Big Workflow, the general idea is to provide a way for big data, HPC, and cloud environments to iteroperate, and do so dynamically based on what applications are running. With the added benefits of a unified platform, OpenStack is a promising platform to interoperate multiple environments." Optimize the Analysis Process Massive Performance enhancements in workload optimization streamline the analytical process, which increases throughput and productivity as well as reduces cost, complexity and errors. These new optimization features include:
Guarantee Services to the Business Improved features allow the data center to ensure SLAs, maximize uptime and prove services were delivered and resources were allocated fairly. Moab 8.0 offers an enhanced Web-based graphical user interface called Moab Viewpoint™. Viewpoint is the next generation of Adaptive's administrative dashboard that today monitors and reports workload and resource utilization.
