Ocean is an administration software stack to provide tools and documentation for heterogeneous cluster management. It is composed in two sub projects Ocean-core and Ocean-stack :
- Ocean-core is a RPM-based distribution built upon a standard Linux distribution and provides packaged tools and software updates needed to manage HPC clusters.
- Ocean-stack (aka Deepblue) describes how to architecture core services required on HPC clusters, how to integrate third-party services and gives operating procedures to manage a HPC Cluster at scale.
