HPC Knowledge Meeting – HPCKP Barcelona, May 2024

The recording and presentation of the talk “Streaming scientific software has never been so EESSI”, by Alan O’Cais, at HPCKP’24 Barcelona are already available online here:

Abstract:

Have you ever wished that all the scientific software you use was available on all the resources you had access to without having to go through the pain of getting them installed the way you want/need?

The European Environment for Scientific Software Installations (EESSI – pronounced “easy”) is a common stack of scientific software installations for HPC systems and beyond, including laptops, personal workstations and cloud infrastructure. In many ways it works like a streaming service for scientific software, instantly giving you the software you need, when you need it, and compiled to work efficiently for the architecture you have access to.

In this talk, we’ll explain what EESSI is, how it is being designed, how to get access to it, and how to use it. We’ll include a number of demonstrations and review significant developments of the last 12 months (including support for NVIDIA GPUs, and active development for RISC-V systems).
