SUMMARY:Performance Analysis of Containerized OrangeFS in HPC Environment
DESCRIPTION:Posters, Research Posters\n\nPerformance Analysis of Container
 ized OrangeFS in HPC Environment\n\nYildirim, Tang, Kougkas, Sun\n\nContai
 nerization is on the rise in cloud computing due to its benefits in reprod
 ucibility, portability and lightweight properties. The need for scalable a
 nd reproducible products and the necessity to interoperate on everything f
 rom local machines to large-scale HPC resources have made HPC solutions ad
 opt containers expeditiously. The necessity of developing HPC-focused cont
 ainers, however, appeared from various scaling and security issues of gene
 ral-purpose containers such as Docker. This paper specifically examines th
 e I/O performance of different HPC-focused container solutions on OrangeFS
 , a parallel storage system. Our analysis shows that Singularity covers al
 most all aspects, from mobility to security concerns, with an almost perfe
 ct score. On the other hand, LXC falls behind at I/O performance, whereas 
 Docker registers an unnecessary amount of network packets under the same w
 orkload. Our aim is to provide such insights to HPC practitioners so that 
 they can obtain the best I/O performance in their solutions.\n\nRegistrati
