Good move. I would say a lightweight distro that does not do much nd
is rebooted every time a job finishes.
Wonder what security types would think of that....

Sidelining the discussion a bit I have been involved with projects
where security types insist on the entire stack for firmware upwards
is kept up to date.
This feeds into the Redha debate of course - if we go Debian how do
you satisfy corporate types?
i guess ubuntu has a role here.

Hi, John.

There is already an Ubuntu-based HPC distro: Qlustar

https://qlustar.com/

Bye,

   Tony.

OpenEuler has several commercial editions built on it:

Suse is also listed as a vendor:

Hi, Benson.

I was responding to John's comment specifically about Ubuntu having a role if we go to Debian. You might be interested to know that the UK Sanger Centre uses Ubuntu for HPC in the life-sciences:

https://www.sanger.ac.uk/group/core-software-services/

My comment about Qlustar was in relation to the availability of commercial support for Ubuntu-based HPC. The Sanger Centre is, of course, a non-profit academic centre for life-science research.

Bye,

  Tony.
