Keynote - Data Clouds and FutureGrid

Prof. Geoffrey Fox

Indiana University, USA

Abstract: Scientific and High Performance computing is changing with new problems and new technologies. Applications are moving from simulation intensive to data intensive while multicore and clouds are changing technology landscape. We describe a new testbed FutureGrid which uses virtualization to provide a dynamic environment for testing new research and education applications. This is new component of TeraGrid that started October 1 2009. It is a partnership between Indiana University, Purdue University, San Diego Supercomputer Center at University of California San Diego, University of Chicago/Argonne National Labs, University of Florida, University of Southern California Information Sciences Institute, University of Tennessee Knoxville, University of Texas at Austin/Texas Advanced Computing Center, University of Virginia, Center for Information Services and GWT-TUD from Technische Universtität Dresden Germany. FutureGrid hardware totals about 5000 cores and is located at Indiana, Purdue, Chicago, Florida, Texas and San Diego. It has a dedicated network (except to Texas) that can be isolated and features a programmable network fault generator. FutureGrid can be considered as a small Science/Computer Science Cloud but it is more accurately a virtual machine based simulation environment. We describe early work on FutureGrid using Cloud Technologies (in particular MapReduce technologies Dryad and Hadoop) to support data intensive applications.
