Frontend node tilia

The node comprises of 4 vCPU, 2.4 GHz, 8 GB RAM and 50 GB SSD disk. Its usage follows the same procedures as for any other frontend node in the MetaCentrum. It is mainly advantageous to log there in order to process data stored on the Průhonice data array and/or to send requests to the Průhonice cluster. It can be reached at tilia.ibot.cas.cz (alias tilia.metacentrum.cz) and home directories are located at /auto/pruhonice1-ibot/home/… on the data array.

Database server

The server is equipped with 8 vCPU, 2.4 GHz, 32 GB RAM and 60 GB SSD disk. It is mainly intended for running NoSQL databases such as Neo4j and MongoDB that are used during Apache Hadoop and Spark computations on the HPC nodes, and for other specialized tasks.
