This study aimed to measure performance of a select set of applications running on "bare metal" (i.e., actually bare metal or virtual machines) against containerization and Kubernetes between HPC clusters and cloud providers. We focused on several attributes of the setups, including (but not limited to) network performance and strong and weak scaling of applications. We

This first release includes raw, unparsed data for the majority of the experiments, which were completed in the last two weeks of August 2024. The study holistically involved assessing the performance and functionality of 14 HPC benchmarks and proxy apps on 8 different infrastructures: Azure AKS and CycleCloud, Google GKE and Compute Engine, AWS EKS and ParallelCluster, along with "bare metal" HPC equivalents on-premises (results not included yet).

This release will be updated when further data, intermediate data processing and scripts, and other analyses are available.
