🚧 Slurm-web is still under active development. Stable release is planned soon. 🚧
Slurm-web is an open source web interface to Slurm based HPC supercomputers. It provides intuitive views of current jobs and nodes states. The organization of this project is being reworked significantly, see the next section for more details.
After years of initial investments from EDF leading to version 2.x, the project is now endorsed by Rackslab which becomes its new official maintainer.
The goal is to build the reference open source web interface for Slurm. A new ambitious roadmap has been defined with long-term vision about this project, starting with version 3.0 coming later this year.
In addition to the current feature set offered by Slurm-web, the following new features are planned:
- Real time updates of the dashboard
- Accounting reports and views on past jobs
- Built-in metrics about jobs and scheduling
- Job submission and inspection
- Significantly improved Gantt view
- QOS, associations and reservations management
- Native RPM/deb packages and containers for easy deployment on most Linux distributions
The software architecture will be reviewed with modern established technologies and based on reference slurmrestd API.
The detailed roadmap is published project discussions rackslab#235. You are more than welcome to discuss about it there, ask questions and give comments!
This main branch will quickly contain the next version 3.0 of Slurm-web under
development. The source code of the previous versions has been moved in 2.x
branch.
Our primary focus is to develop the feature release 3.0 with new modern and solid foundations, for faster development of the envisioned features, more reliably and flexibility. Unfortunately, we don't have the manpower to maintain and support the previous 2.x releases. If any community member is willing to participate on this, feel free to open pull requests, we will be more than happy to merge your contributions!
The source code of the previous version has been moved in 2.x branch. This
main branch will contain the future version 3.0 under development.
The licence of Slurm-web source code will not change, it will remain free software (as in beer and as in speech) released under the terms of GPLv3. Rackslab strongly believes in free software values and is deeply committed in this regard.
No, you will still be able to install Slurm-web for free (as in beer). See our business model for more details.
No, there will be only one fully-featured version of Slurm-web free for everyone. See our business model for more details.
During the initial development phase, Rackslab is actively looking for organizations willing to sponsor the development of Slurm-web. If your organization has interest in this project and wants to participate in boosting its development, please contact us! Your contribution among others is essential to build a solid and durable team around this project.
Once Slurm-web reaches a solid state, Rackslab plans to offer professional support and development service for organizations, with the goal to make the project sustainable, very active and innovative.
The detailed roadmap is published in project discussions. Feel free to comment, ask questions or give suggestions there!
