Slurm Workload Manager (SLURM)

Efficient Cluster Management for Composable Computing with FabreXTM and Slurm

Slurm (Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management) is the industry’s leading open-source, highly-scalable, and configurable cluster management and job scheduling system for Linux and Unix-like kernels. Slurm is the workload manager on about 60% of the TOP500 supercomputers around the world. It is designed to be highly efficient and fault-tolerant, making it well-suited for use in large-scale computing environments such as supercomputers and high-performance computing clusters. Slurm is widely used in scientific and academic computing, and is supported by a large and active community of developers and users.
