Comparing Traditional HPC Environemnt to Cloud Services¶
Which MetaCentrum Cloud Do I Need?¶
There are multiple MetaCentrum cloud environments:
- MetaCentrum Sensitive
- MetaCentrum Kubernetes
- MetaCentrum OpenStack
Each of them is targetting different use-cases. General rules of thumb are:
- You need to use MetaCentrum Sensitive if your application deals with sensitive data.
- You want to consider MetaCentrum Kubernetes if your application is already containerized and does not require any special environment (such as VM isolation, networking separation or specific networking configuration, etc.).
- Otherwise look into MetaCentrum OpenStack.
