AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing metering system is not applicable to clusters other than those based on the PBS Torque scheduling system, lacks scalability, the resource usage metering data comes from task logs, has a limited application scope, and does not have user group management functions.

Method used

A metering and billing system for high-performance computing was designed. It directly obtains resource usage data from the cluster scheduling system, supports multiple scheduling systems, has user group management functions, parses job metadata to obtain resource information tables through a loosely coupled mode, and combines with the billing management module to realize detailed metering and security auditing.

Benefits of technology

It achieves scalable metering for multiple clusters, supports user group management and billing, provides detailed and comprehensive data, has auditing functions, and ensures the security and accurate metering of the metering system and clusters.
