Flexible dynamic deployment system and method for render cluster

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible dynamic deployment system and method for a render cluster. The system comprises a rendering task management platform and a rendering unit control dispatcher, and the rendering task management platform is used for distributing tasks to the rendering unit control dispatcher of a cluster management node and receiving task processing schedule information uploaded by the rendering unit control dispatcher of the cluster management node. The rendering unit control dispatcher is used for distributing tasks to a plurality of rendering units and receiving task processing schedule information fed back from each rendering unit, and is used for processing the computing node requests of the rendering units and dynamically adjusting the number of the computing nodes in the rendering units according to a priority sequence in the process of executing the rendering tasks. Each rendering unit comprises a rendering unit Master course, the rendering unit Master courses are in communication with the computing nodes, and one computing node corresponds to one rendering unit Slave course. Computing resources are effectively utilized, and the resource use ratio is maximized. Under the condition of not influencing service quality, the number of the system concurrence users of the render cluster is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to high-performance computing technology, in particular to a flexible dynamic deployment system and method for rendering clusters. Background technique [0002] Rendering cluster (or rendering farm) is a distributed cluster computing system, which is a supercomputer built with existing CPU, Ethernet, and operating system. It uses mainstream commercial computer hardware equipment to reach or approach the computing power of a supercomputer . A rendering farm is built on a computer cluster. A single computer in a cluster system is usually called a node, one or more of which are used as management nodes, and the other nodes are called computing nodes. The nodes are usually connected through a LAN, but there are other possible connection methods. Such as InfiniBand. Clusters can improve the computing speed and / or reliability of individual computers. In general, cluster computers are much more cost-effective than individual computers...
