Existing HPC systems needed to be integrated as a complete Dual-Boot HPC turn-key solution.
Microsoft Windows HPC 2008 servers have been installed to some of Linux HPC systems available in Middle East Technical University as a work performed together with Microsoft Türkiye. Consequently, the systems have been brought to work on dual-boot structure. The structure together with existing system has been enabled to work through both Linux and Microsoft HPC servers.
Additionally, a one day seminar has been conducted by our company right after the completion of work and the operation of system and the features extracted from the its infrastructures have been elaborately demonstrated in the seminar.
We also have prepared and present Installation, Management, User Manuals & Training Documentation
