| #openstack-cyborg - 2017-11-15 | |||
| 08:24:47 | masber | I would like to see if we can make those cards to work on openstack, I mean been able to access the FPGAs from the instance | |
| 08:24:55 | masber | I did a talk in the openstack summit in sydney | |
| 08:25:13 | masber | I talk about what we do etc | |
| 08:25:49 | masber | I am not an openstack expert just, installed it and played with it a little bit | |
| 08:26:23 | masber | but now with these FPGAs coming I feel I should start getting my hands dirty | |
| 08:26:40 | zhipengh[m] | Cool ! Can you provide the title of your Sydney topic ? So that I could search on youtube :) | |
| 08:26:46 | zhipengh[m] | As for cyborg | |
| 08:27:07 | masber | so, if I am not mistaken we are receiving some nallatech 385a | |
| 08:27:16 | zhipengh[m] | Our current code base cannot function yet, and we are undergoing active development | |
| 08:27:40 | masber | the name of the talk was "building a genome future with openstack" | |
| 08:28:04 | masber | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSAJpAxORAw | |
| 08:28:10 | zhipengh[m] | I will definitely check it out :) | |
| 08:28:52 | masber | it is quite basic talk | |
| 08:28:55 | zhipengh[m] | So at the moment you could run up the three main cyborg processes, but no function yet | |
| 08:29:02 | masber | I see | |
| 08:29:12 | zhipengh[m] | We are now try to define data models | |
| 08:29:24 | zhipengh[m] | And would be great to have input from you | |
| 08:29:34 | zhipengh[m] | For example on FPGA | |
| 08:29:58 | masber | ok, I am not an user with lots of expertise on these kind of things, but happy to give it a go | |
| 08:30:05 | zhipengh[m] | What is your main use case for that and what would you like to see FPGA resource represented | |
| 08:30:25 | zhipengh[m] | That'd be great ! | |
| 08:30:31 | masber | this is to run a tool called GATK4 | |
| 08:30:53 | masber | it is a best practice set of tools to run genome analysis | |
| 08:31:05 | masber | so this tool can work on HPC or in a SPARK cluster | |
| 08:31:25 | masber | our goal is to see how much efficiency we can get by running these tools on FPGAs | |
| 08:31:40 | masber | compared to running on Apache Spark | |
| 08:32:25 | masber | the thing is I am receiving the cards tomorrow from the intel guy who is coming from overseas (not sure from singapose, china or US) | |
| 08:32:32 | masber | *singapore | |
| 08:32:48 | masber | and I am not sure for how long I can keep the cards either | |
| 08:33:05 | zhipengh[m] | that is very interesting | |
| 08:34:06 | masber | another problem is that currently I am deploying openstack using kolla... | |
| 08:34:28 | zhipengh[m] | Ah~ | |
| 08:36:32 | zhipengh[m] | I think we should first look into GATK4 , see what are the resource requirements for running it on the FPGA card | |
| 08:37:01 | zhipengh[m] | Those requirements could compose what we call accelerator capability in cyborg | |
| 08:37:10 | masber | I think I can get that information from intel I think | |
| 08:37:40 | masber | I see | |
| 08:37:56 | zhipengh[m] | And then I think our team could come up the very first data model outline for FPGA | |
| 08:38:04 | masber | I think intel got GATK4 running on FPGAs | |
| 08:38:05 | zhipengh[m] | With a real use case :) | |
| 08:38:27 | masber | yes my use case is quite real because we are planing to deploy this pipeline in production | |
| 08:38:38 | masber | we are actually running GATK3 in production | |
| 08:38:41 | zhipengh[m] | BTW we will have video conference about 6:20 hour later | |
| 08:38:51 | zhipengh[m] | Would it be possible for you to join ? | |
| 08:39:03 | masber | in 6.20 hours | |
| 08:39:06 | masber | let me check | |
| 08:39:11 | zhipengh[m] | Haha right | |
| 08:39:21 | masber | 2:00 am my time | |
| 08:39:28 | masber | yes I can join | |
| 08:39:56 | zhipengh[m] | Wow that is pretty late | |
| 08:40:20 | zhipengh[m] | Anyways I will send out the details later on openstack-dev mailing list | |
| 08:40:32 | masber | yep, well as I said Im not a quite competent openstack user so most of the time I have to stay till late so I can get help from the community | |
| 08:40:47 | masber | many nights working until 4am | |
| 08:41:02 | zhipengh[m] | Man that is hardcore | |
| 08:41:02 | masber | but it is ok, I am happy to try and see if I can help you | |
| 08:41:18 | masber | my boss gives me free days | |
| 08:41:20 | masber | it is ok | |
| 08:41:45 | zhipengh[m] | :) | |
| 08:42:11 | masber | plus I'm a pragmatic person which means I learn by experience so for me it is quite good to get in contact with people in get things done | |
| 08:42:15 | masber | anyway | |
| 08:42:51 | masber | yeah I will join the call so if there any doubt I can talk with the intel guy tomorrow | |
| 08:43:03 | masber | he is giving me the cards and then we will have a meeting | |
| 08:43:21 | masber | so maybe I can ask questions in your behalf | |
| 08:46:47 | masber | so how do you do the video conference? | |
| 08:47:10 | masber | skype? | |
| 08:47:17 | masber | google hangouts? | |
| 08:48:59 | zhipengh[m] | ZOOM | |
| 08:50:21 | zhipengh[m] | Very good quality | |
| 08:50:28 | masber | ok | |
| 08:53:27 | masber | ok I will see you later, Im going home now | |
| 08:59:16 | zhipengh[m] | Take care man ! | |
| 14:56:08 | masuberu | hi | |
| 14:56:32 | masuberu | is the meeting happening? | |
| 14:57:55 | zhipeng | hi will start momentarily | |
| 14:58:28 | masuberu | ok | |
| 14:58:38 | masuberu | I don't know how to access tho | |
| 14:59:09 | masuberu | and also I can't talk as it is 2am and everybody is sleeping at home but I can chat and listen | |
| 15:00:16 | masuberu | just ping me when people is ready | |
| 15:00:19 | zhipeng | okey no problem, let me send the zoom link here | |
