Cloud computing's resources-as-a-service frees end-users from resource ownership, expertise or control over the underlying technology. Users borrow and consume IT services much as they would telephony, electrical infrastructure or other utilities.

High-performance workloads (Engineering, Scientific, or other Technical Computations), with their requirements for a large number of processing cores or large-memory/RAM footprints, have been beyond the scale of common cloud computing resources. Thus, end-users with different types of workload have had to procure dedicated, expensive and purpose-built hardware. In addition to the expense, they were required to spend their time maintaining and managing these additional compute resources, instead of investing their time in simply running workloads and generating application results.

ScaleMP's vSMP Foundation for Cloud applies HPC on-demand architecture to carve out large SMP systems, supporting aggregation of up to 128 servers into a single virtual machine, with up to 8,192 cores and 64TB or main memory.

Main Features:
➢ Dynamic, on the fly provisioning of systems to create large CPU/memory systems aggregation
➢ Provisioning and reprovisioning of resources using existing infrastructure
