  1. United Devices Overview Presentation to: CELUG 10-May-2006 Jikku Venkat, CTO UD CONFIDENTIAL

  2. AGENDA • UD Corporate Overview • Typical EDA Compute Infrastructure • The UD HPC Management Solution • IT Intelligence with HPC Insight • Resource Optimization with HPC Synergy • Key UD Contacts • Summary • Q & A UD CONFIDENTIAL

  3. Introducing UD UD enables Collaborative High-Performance Computing (HPC) By optimizing the distributed, heterogeneous HPC environment and offering grid as a centralized service to research and business organizations Collaborative HPC UD CONFIDENTIAL

  4. Innovation Increases innovation and competitiveness through increased capacity and improved service TCO Decreased TCO throughcentralized visibility, control and planning Value Time “We could never deliver on the class of problems that we are being asked to solve without aggregating and coordinating our HPC environment.” Raytheon “We realized a breakthrough in our internal processes… whilst improving productivity, quality of service, ease of use, & reducing scientific infrastructure costs by more than 20%." Arcelor “Scientists and engineers are not smarter from one company to the next,it is the frequency and scale of research that gives companies an advantage.” J&J UD CONFIDENTIAL

  5. Recent Customers UD CONFIDENTIAL

  6. Typical EDA Infrastructure • Most mature “Grid” user community (commercial) • Thousands of CPU’s across multiple sites worldwide • Typically managed in silos, some centrally managed • Cycle harvesting from workstations • Many users • 10’s of applications – commercial and proprietary UD CONFIDENTIAL

  7. Challenges in the EDA environment • How does application licensing work in a global grid environment? • License usage monitoring • License administration, management • Monitoring and Reporting • How much capacity? • How is it being utilized? Do I need more capacity? • Leveraging new advances in grid software • “DRM” is now embedded in a service-oriented architecture • Web services technology offers end-user transparency, ease of application enablement • How to incorporate this into the existing mature, production grid environment? • Environment/Physical issues • Power Density • Data Center floor space • Cooling UD CONFIDENTIAL

  9. HPC Insight UD CONFIDENTIAL

  10. HPC Insight Users Applications Users Users Applications Applications HPC Insight A capacity management dashboard providing a holistic view of HPC activity across the entire enterprise Users - Inventory - Capacity - Utilization • VP of R&D IT • VP of HPC Strategy • Finance • - User Management Cluster Cluster Cluster Heterogeneous HPC Environments • Align HPC usage/resource allocation with business priorities • Make more informed HPC purchase decisions • Improve existing resource utilization UD CONFIDENTIAL

  11. HPC Insight Applications Applications Applications BusinessPriorities Users Users Users Cluster Cluster Cluster Align Usage with Business Priorities Usage Policies Strategy, Finance, IT Management • Compare business priorities with current usage patterns • Ensure higher priority tasks get preference by establishing usage policies across all HPC resources • Maximize the value derived from HPC environment UD CONFIDENTIAL

  12. HPC Insight Purchase Requests Purchase Requests Make Informed Purchase Decisions Reduced Denied Approved Finance/ Procurement • Reconcile and justify each purchase with a single, normalized view into capacity and utilization of all HPC resources • Speed the procurement process by enabling a standardized method for review and decision-making • Ground HPC planning & budgeting in actual utilization trends • Avoid unnecessary HPC spending UD CONFIDENTIAL

  13. HPC Insight Applications Applications Applications Users Users Users Cluster Cluster Cluster Improve Resource Utilization Load Balance IT, User Management • Understand utilization by user, application, data, resource and network • Improve utilization by load balancing in a variety of ways based on associated metrics • Delay and/or avoid HPC spending UD CONFIDENTIAL

  14. Automated Actions • Collect Data • Aggregate • Transform • Normalize • Summarize • Report HPC Insight Data Collected • Capacity/Utilization • Users • Applications • Jobs • Clusters and Grids • Compute Nodes • Storage Data Warehouse Adapter Adapter Adapter Users Applications Users Applications Users Applications • Sun SGE • Platform LSF • Altair PBS Pro • Altair Open PBS • Condor • UD Grid MP Legacy Schedulers Native Artifacts Native Artifacts Native Artifacts How HPC Insight Works HPC Insight UD CONFIDENTIAL

  15. Why HPC Insight? • Only solution that provides a single, normalized view across the entire HPC environment • Agnostic to legacy workload schedulers • Only HPC-focused, self-contained management solution • No integration with systems management products required • No integration with business intelligence products required • Affordable solution that can be rapidly deployed • Integrates with meta-schedulers like HPC Synergy to optimize scheduling across the enterprise UD CONFIDENTIAL
