IBM Platform LSF Session Scheduler - license + 1 Year Software Subscription

Today, many technical and high performance computing (HPC) users have to accept tradeoffs. The productivity gains of scalable workloads are often balanced against the challenges of managing large numbers of short-duration jobs. Often they have to adjust their workloads to address the constraints of the workload scheduler. Sometimes it can take longer to set up a short duration job than it takes to run it, which leads to inefficient system performance particularly when submitting a large volume of identical jobs.

The IBM Platform Session Scheduler gives you the best of both worlds: speed and volume. It is designed to work with IBM Platform LSF to provide high-throughput, low-latency scheduling for a wide-range of workloads. Platform Session Scheduler is particularly well suited to environments that run high volumes of short-duration jobs and where users require faster and more predictable job turnaround times.

Unlike traditional batch schedulers that make resource allocation decisions for every job submission,
