标 题: build a small cluster, suggestions/comments please...
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Sun Apr 8 16:49:18 2012, 美东)
First of all, I am a novice in CS/Network, please offer advice ...
I need to build a small cluster (~7 nodes) for parallel simulation computing
. My first thought about this project is just to buy 7 PCs with decent
configurations (e.g. Dell computers $700/each). And then install OS and
clustering software etc to configure.
This cluster will be mainly used for my research and teaching. So ideally it
would allow 20 or more users to login at the same time. The computational
work is typically medium (1-2 hours).
My questions include:
1. Linux or Windows? Windows could be better for undergraduate students and
software compatibility (windows offices).
2. Some detailed suggestions for hardware configurations? Particularly for
the master node (server)?
3. A list of required items?
4. Would it be realistic to limit the budget of $15,000 for such a cluster?
5. Any other comments?
Thanks very much in advance for your thoughts.
Best regards,
