Star-P On-Demand

If you have MATLAB® or Python codes that could benefit from parallelization BUT DO NOT have the multi-core, multiprocessor or cluster hardware, Star-P On-Demand is your answer!

Interactive Supercomputing offers flexible access to pay-per-use computing resources for the award winning Star-P parallel programming platform. Domain experts, programmers and IT organizations can use the Star-P On-Demand capability to easily and securely test, benchmark, build and deploy applications for enterprise deployment or for use by anyone on the Internet.

Star-P On-Demand has been designed to allow engineers, scientists, analysts and their respective organizations to do four things:

  1. Understand the use and business benefit of Star-P and on demand computing resources
  2. Access Star-P and on demand computing resources to meet overflow computing requirements.
  3. Acquire short term computing needs without the cost of additional hardware infrastructure and associated overhead costs.
  4. Use Star-P and on demand computing resources for long term production needs when the hardware infrastructures are not available internally.

Run Star-P on our partner's general purpose cluster. The Star-P On-Demand Service is accessible online from anywhere, anytime. When you are ready to run, simply submit a "job" to the cluster for processing. Your application is automatically executed on the next available node(s) - Run task or data parallel applications on multiple nodes as needed to meet business requirements.

  • Submit jobs to the cluster 24 hours a day
  • Control your own application and data, securely
  • Direct access to your files gives you complete freedom and control of your code, applications, and data
  • Versatile and secure command line access (ssh) gives you the ultimate flexibility
  • View job progress instantly
  • Easy to use Cluster User Interface (CLUI) provides job history, usage reports, and cluster status
  • We work with you to get your application running smoothly, free trial and test time included
  • Performance when you need it

You can access Star-P On-Demand for a test or trial period and then access the service in a pay-as-you-go mode for further development or you can purchase monthly packages of core hours at special pricing.
