Yesterday's NVIDIA acquisition of SchedMD marks a milestone moment for the HPC community. Slurm powers more than half of the world's top supercomputers, and seeing it receive this level of investment speaks to its enduring importance. Read Gregory Kurtzer’s thoughts: https://bit.ly/3MLUDp8

This is a big deal and David is great at explaining.

At SC25, David Godlove announced Fuzzball’s integration with Slurm and PBS, which means that you can now orchestrate containers in HPC. This integration dramatically lowers the adoption risk of modernization initiatives by supporting gradual, user-led adoption. Watch demo: https://bit.ly/48vZ3cj

At SC25, we unveiled one of Fuzzball’s most requested features: native integration with Slurm and PBS. Now you can keep your scheduler and add modern container orchestration with no workflow rewrites. David Godlove breaks it down here: https://bit.ly/4pjoNhS

Good morning St. Louis. The Rocky Linux community is at #SC25. We will be having a session today, Wednesday, Nov 19 @ 10:00 am at @ciq.com's booth, #736 Come on by and say Hi! or ¡Hola!. Bring your questions and find out how to contribute. #RockyLinux #RESF @rockylinux.org

On my way to #SC25. Selfies are not my thing but I want to share this experience to represent an open source community that I believe in. They never cease to impress and do wonderful things. Thank you for this privilege to represent you all. #RockyLinux #RESF

Rocky Linux is leading Enterprise Linux adoption. Fedora EPEL stats, a shared repo across all major Enterprise distributions, reveal which systems are truly in use. The data shows Rocky Linux has become the trusted successor to CentOS: https://bit.ly/47Kqq0K #RockyLinux #EnterpriseLinux #EPEL

This is incredible! One of my teammates helped to do the benchmarking that backs up that claim of going from installation to first token 9x faster with our pre-configured solution.

Thank you!

We're kicking off a blog series on OpenHPC, an open source ecosystem that makes HPC cluster deployment manageable. It's a compelling alternative to expensive commercial solutions, providing enterprise-grade stability without the licensing headaches. Read Part 1: bit.ly/4hqtVxv #HPC #RockyLinux
