Live system telemetry and I/O monitoring
Mistral is a lightweight application monitoring tool for HPC and scientific compute.
Protect shared storage from rogue jobs and noisy neighbour applications with per-job I/O monitoring.
Catch problems before they happen with workflow qualification at scale.
Monitor system health with telemetry from every node and application.
Catching rogue jobs at Diamond Light Source
“By using Mistral, we have been able to reduce the impact of noisy neighbours, reduce runtime and identify applications with bad I/O.”
Frederik Ferner, Senior Sys Admin at Diamond Light Source
Storage protection at ARM
“The data and system control provided by Mistral allows the infrastructure teams to prevent risky I/O patterns and give us a lot more information to learn from.”
Olly Stephens, Engineering Systems Architect at ARM
Monitoring user I/O at TACC
Mistral is being deployed to Frontera at TACC to find users with bad I/O patterns such as excess meta-data.
Frontera is the largest machine at the Texas Advanced Computing Center
Take control of the way applications access data
Mistral can be deployed in production, in test or as a one-off system healthcheck. By following our best practices you can ensure that your applications and infrastructure are fast, agile and cloud ready.
How much time are you spending in bad I/O?
Collect per-job read, write and meta data metrics
Measure file system performance and load in real time
Analyse system trends for specific workloads, users, groups or projects
Integrated with Grafana, InfluxDB, Elastic search, Splunk and more
Throttle problem applications by setting IOP and bandwidth QoS limits
