HPC Platforms

This document outlines reference deployments of CEEMS alongside Prometheus and Grafana on typical HPC platforms.

Using Thanos​

CEEMS with Thanos

Key Features​

  • Thanos is used for data replication and long-term storage of TSDB data
  • Litestream is used to replicate and create snapshots of the CEEMS API server SQLite database
  • Minio is used to store TSDB data on typical parallel file systems like Lustre, Spectrum Scale, BGFS, etc. in HPC platforms
  • CEEMS load balancer is used to enforce access control on TSDB backends

Using Prometheus' remote write​

CEEMS with Prometheus' remote write

Key Features​

  • A second instance of Prometheus with its remote write protocol is used for data replication and long-term storage
  • Litestream is used to replicate and create snapshots of the CEEMS API server SQLite database
  • CEEMS load balancer is used to enforce access control on TSDB backends
