Register Now!

If you are planning on attending CELUG, simply register for CELUG and you will get floor / Design Infrastructure Alley access.

If you are primarily interested in the Design Infrastructure Alley, be sure to sign up for the FREE “I Love DAC” promotion while it lasts and use promo code DACILDDM.

Sunday Workshop, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM.  Cost:  $300.00

Storage Profiling, Containerization and Cloud for EDA.  Sign up as part of normal DAC registration.

This is very a very exciting addition to our events this year.  The first-ever Workshop we’ve held at DAC and it is going to be very informative!  Be sure you get to Vegas in time for this, as the workshop starts at 8:00 am!

New and exciting IT infrastructure technologies are widely gaining adoption outside of EDA. This workshop focuses on some core capabilities needed by EDA companies in order to begin to embrace these new technologies. In this day-long course, we will cover:

  • Storage Profiling utilizing Ellexus (90 minutes)
    • Tracing application dependencies in detail to provide a bill of materials showing all the locations a flow requires in order to run
    • Collecting system-wide telemetry on storage performance of the above flow
    • Finding applications that have I/O problems or what type of I/O patterns are likely to cause problems
  • How to size storage for Cloud for huge cost savings using Singularity Containers (90 minutes)
    • Introduction to containers and Singularity containers specifically
    • Performance and security considerations when selecting a container technology
    • How to containerize an application for portability using Singularity EDA on AWS (60 minutes)
  • Running Scale-Out Engineering Workloads on the Cloud using Rescale (120 minutes)
    • The attraction of running engineering workloads on the cloud is the promise of scale.  However, running workloads at scale securely in the cloud often requires complicated set-up and development.
    • This workshop will cover how to set-up and run a scale-out engineering workload on Rescale’s turnkey platform.
    • We will review how to monitor the job progress, set limits and budgets, and review results.
