There is a lot of excitement around Bright Cluster Manager 9.1 providing an integration with vSphere, as it allows high-performance clusters to be created and managed without the need for skills and knowledge of vSphere.

With so many of us working remotely, podcasts have become a highly consumable medium … we don’t have to be deskbound to tune in. We can enjoy rich and insightful content while walking the dog, or taking daily exercise. 

Late last year, we announced an integration with Ansible to enable organizations who have standardized on Ansible to gain the power and flexibility that Bright Cluster Manager provides, using their configuration tool of choice.

We are excited to announce that Bright Computing has been invited to participate in the next Dell Technologies HPC Community Event:

HPCNow! (based in Spain), Do IT Systems (based in Italy), and UCit (based in France), are all long-standing partners of Bright Computing. In November 2020, we were delighted to hear that these three organizations had united their efforts and formed a new alliance, called Do IT Now.

Across industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, agriculture, financial, etc., edge computing has become more complex and nuanced as the digital age has progressed.

As we collectively catch our breath after what can only be described as an unprecedented year, this is a good opportunity to look back on Bright Computing’s journey through the previous 12 months.

We are really pleased that the University of Vigo in Spain has chosen Bright Cluster Manager to build and manage its HPC Linux cluster. 

You won’t be surprised to hear that CIUK 2020 will be a virtual event this year. This marks CIUK’s 31st year, and it will be the first ever online event for the team. Rather fittingly, the theme of the 2020 event will be “computing in a virtual world”, looking at how approaches to research and working practices have changed during the pandemic. 

Well, what a week that was! We would have all preferred to be together at SC20 because virtual events are never the same, but we are grateful to you all for taking the time to visit Bright during SC20.
