Hybrid HPC architecture uses some of the building blocks that are used for a cloud-native HPC architecture complemented with the on-premises part. The following Azure resources will be used in this scenario:
- HPC head node: The head node runs on your on-premises environment. The head node can be installed on a virtual machine in Azure as well, on a Windows or Linux server virtual machine, and just like the cloud-native architecture, you can install Azure HPC Pack on it and it will become the head node automatically.
- HPC compute nodes: The HPC compute nodes in your on-premises environment can be Linux or Windows servers with sufficient compute power. The VMs in Azure are created using A8 and A9 instances and provide ...
