AWS Workshop: Get embarrassingly parallel with a cloud-backed computing grid

When

12/05/2024    
1:30 pm – 3:00 pm

This month

Something we’d like to think the cloud is very good at is running the same code hundreds of times at once with variations on the code’s input data, something known as embarrassing parallelism. AWS is going to bolster our optimism with a demonstration of how to do this with their cloud resources. Call it grid computing. Call it arrayed execution. Call it a parallel cluster. Just don’t call it CPU-bound, ok buddy?

About this workshop series

UW’s Amazon Web Services (AWS) team cordially invites you to attend a monthly workshop hosted at the eScience Institute. These workshops will consist of a technical component introducing cloud computing concepts, discussing best practices, and an open Q&A session to discuss projects you are working on or issues you are running into.

Participants can attend either online over Zoom, or in person at the WRF Data Science Studio on the 6th floor of the Physics/Astronomy Tower on the UW campus:
