Project Lightning Talk: How To Run Kubernetes Pods On My Slurm-Based HPC Center - Diego Ciangottini

This talk covers the deployment and integration of the interLink project, which connects cloud-native workloads such as AI inference and multi-node machine learning training with high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructures that utilize batch systems like Slurm. The speaker, Diego Ciangottini, demonstrates how interLink allows Kubernetes extensions in environments where standard Kubelet deployment is not feasible. Through real-world use cases and a live demonstration, the session illustrates a Kubernetes cluster accessing external resources without customization, highlighting the versatility offered by the built-in plugin architecture for diverse infrastructures.
