What they do

Problem

HPC users need an easier way to run compute-intensive jobs on scalable infrastructure without managing their own clusters.

Solution

A cloud grid on AWS accessible via a few lines of Python (and soon Java) code to fetch data and run distributed computations.

Who it's for

Developers and organizations running high-performance computing workloads who want to offload jobs to the cloud.
