Frontier Grid Platform
Frontier Enterprise
A supercomputer rests quietly within the latent capacity of your organization's IT infrastructure. Why not "spark it up" with Frontier Enterprise?
We package all the great features of the Frontier Grid Platform and deliver them as Frontier Enterprise, an enterprise software solution that transforms existing computing resources – from desktops to mainframes – into a powerful grid computing service, available to anyone with an authorized account.
A turnkey grid system, Frontier Enterprise can be fully deployed in a single afternoon and it comes with everything you need to begin running grid-based applications right away. The Frontier Grid Server can be installed on one or multiple servers, depending on the size of your grid and its convenient web interface allows easy grid administration from any web browser. Manage user accounts, monitor load and even configure settings on grid nodes with the click of a few buttons.
The web interface also allows the Frontier Compute Engine to be downloaded to individual computers. And, organizations that administer software centrally can install the Frontier Compute Engine en masse. Both applications can also be deployed as virtual appliances, perfect for data centers that have embraced virtualization technology, such as VMware®.
With Frontier Enterprise, you are in complete control of your grid. All its software components are highly configurable. For example, grid administrators can specify:
- When the Frontier Compute Engine is permitted to perform work
- The amount of RAM, disk space and proportion of CPU it may use
- Whether it runs as a “stealth” service or user application
And, the Frontier Grid Server allows administrators to:
- Create user accounts
- Assign the relative priority of users and their jobs
- Apply upgrades across the entire grid
- Even control the amount of bandwidth consumed by individual applications
Best of all, because existing resources provide the capacity, Frontier Enterprise is the simplest and most affordable way to power your HPC applications. Contact us today about bringing Computation on Demand into your organization with Frontier Enterprise.
