SUMMARY:Computing-as-a-Service Infrastructure for Accelerating Digital Eng
 ineering
DESCRIPTION:Eric Ho and Kevin Pedretti (Sandia National Laboratories)\n\nH
 igh-Performance Computing (HPC) provides significant advantages to researc
 hers across diverse fields due to its capability to handle complex and dat
 a-intensive computations beyond conventional systems. However, not all res
 earchers possess the expertise to leverage HPC effectively. Sandia's Compu
 ting as a Service (CaaS) project aims to democratize HPC by offering its p
 erformance without requiring researchers to become HPC experts.\n\nCaaS fi
 rst developed a prototype for the DetNet team, focusing on delivering simu
 lation-as-a-service for the detonator community. This presentation highlig
 hts the prototype's components (UI, Cloud, HPC), demonstrating their use o
 f containerization for scalability and portability. The creation of contai
 ners optimized for HPC resource utilization is discussed, covering perform
 ance and security challenges. Additionally, the deployment of frontend con
 tainers via Kubernetes is outlined, including challenges linked to integra
 ting frontend and HPC cluster containers. This initiative bridges the gap 
 between HPC capabilities and researchers' accessibility, fostering a colla
 borative environment for advanced computational research.\n\nRegistration
