OS groups are under pressure to tailor off-the-shelf Red Hat Enterprise Linux and other OS platforms -- but, today, it's flexibility at the expense of control. Application, middleware, security and other specialized requirements spawn new platform variants that create "complexity hell," making ongoing management a major challenge. It leads to duplicate effort in maintaining common OS components, inefficient and fragile update and patching, and transparency issues that put compliance at risk. In an age of flat or declining resources and pressure for customization, today's management models no longer work.

This technical presentation will focus on the promises and perils of building a dynamic infrastructure for a true HPC cloud environment. As a case study, the Rocky Mountain Supercomputing Centers, Inc. (RMSC) offers a Supercomputing Platforms as a Service (SPaaS) model for Cloud Computing. The challenge facing RMSC is to provide a range of standard software packages and HPC services to their clients in a robust and automated fashion. These services require a flexible infrastructure as clients have a wide range of needs.
