Moab HPC Suite
What it is
Moab HPC Suite is self-hosted Linux software for scheduling workloads and managing resources across high-performance computing infrastructure. Its scheduling algorithms place jobs and allocate resources to improve cluster utilization and reduce wait times. Automatic workload balancing and priority management direct capacity toward critical jobs, while administrators define policies for scheduling, resource allocation, and user access. Multiple HPC clusters can be managed through one interface with unified monitoring and control. Reporting and analytics cover cluster performance and resource use, including GPU utilization metrics. The suite describes high-availability architecture with failover for critical workloads. Enterprise Edition documentation names Moab Workload Manager, Moab Web Services, Moab Accounting Manager, and TORQUE Resource Manager as components. Moab Web Services provides a REST interface for jobs, nodes, virtual machines, and reservations. Documentation lists TORQUE 5.0.1 and SLURM as supported resource managers. Installation guidance covers manual and RPM approaches plus Red Hat, SUSE, and Ubuntu-based systems. Pricing is on request; downloads require an appropriately authorized account.
