DryadLINQ Tutorial: Part 1 – Distributed Storage Catalog (DSC) Basics

One of the most exciting additions to Windows HPC Server 2008 R2 SP2 (currently in beta) is the support for DryadLINQ . DryadLINQ is an API that allows the creation and execution of large scale, data-parallel compute tasks. One of the core capabilities of Dryad (the underlying framework used by DryaLINQ) is the ability to distribute the data over the cluster and maintain data locality by executing the code on the node storing the data. In order to do both, Dryad utilizes a mechanism called The Distributed...

There's nothing like a job well done

Today @ MIX Ido and I got some very good news. The first part of our work for the HPC Azure Burst training kit was released today for download by Microsoft. Oh and we got a Kinect. The document released provides on overview of the architectural considerations for using Azure compute nodes as a part of your cluster. There is a lot of work still ahead of us and we will kick out some very cool content on MSDN (and cooler stuff on our blogs ) so stay tuned. Yaniv
