Grid Computing on public cloud

I gave a talk on using public cloud to host grid computing/HPC workloads. The elastic and on demand nature of public cloud is a great fit for spikey workloads like grid computing. I’d had some fun building an autoscaling MATLAB HPC cluster (scale out and scale back) and talked about it at a breakfast briefing with our consultancy Hentsu.

Hi I’ve been designing, deploying, securing and maintaining IT infrastructures for a long time and thought it was time I shared back with the community that has helped me so much. I’m currently working within the financial sector in London. I got some vendor certifications along the way (Microsof Cyber Security Architect Expert, Amazon AWS Architect Pro, ISC Certified Cloud Security Professional, Microsoft MCSE, VMware VCP, Cisco CCNA).
