About this webinar

Software installation on High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems differs from typical installations on personal computers due to multi-user environments, shared resources, and system-wide configurations.
Instead of installing software globally, users often work within shared or isolated environments while leveraging specialized tools for software management.
There are multiple methods available to install software on HPC systems depending on their specific configuration.

This webinar is designed for new users of supercomputers who want to install software by themselves. It will cover topics such as compiling code from source (make and cmake), utilizing “package managers” (conda, Spack, and EasyBuild), and deploying executables with containers (Singularity).

Who is this webinar for?

This webinar is ideal for both beginners and intermediate HPC users looking to improve their software installation skills in a high-performance computing environment. It is suitable for those who use or manage HPC systems and need to install and manage software efficiently in these environments, including:

  • researchers using HPC clusters for simulations, AI/ML, or big data analysis
  • software developers who write applications for parallel computing, AI, or numerical simulations
  • system administrators & HPC support staff responsible for maintaining HPC software environments
  • AI & data science practitioners running models on HPC clusters and cloud computing platforms

Key takeaways

By the end of this webinar, you will:

  • understand basics of HPC software installation
  • learn why software installation on HPC differs from regular systems
  • explore different software installation methods
  • learn best practices for managing software dependencies
  • optimize performance for HPC workloads
  • gain hands-on experience with practical examples
