IDEA is a platform that facilitates distributed HPC and self-service Virtual Desktops on AWS

Integrated Digital Engineering on AWS

Read Me First

IDEA is NOT supported by AWS. Do NOT expect support from AWS for IDEA. If you're looking for a supported solution, please look to AWS RES.

AWS has decided to take a different direction with IDEA and pursue RES (https://github.com/aws/res). Until RES achieves feature parity with IDEA, this repository will be the authoritative source for IDEA updates, patches, and information.

This project is NOT AWS RES (https://github.com/aws/res). RES is a fork of IDEA and not all IDEA features made it to RES. Specifically HPC and other features. RES Documentation is available on https://docs.aws.amazon.com/res/latest/ug/overview.html

This code was originally written by AWS but has been abandoned and taken open source as of version 3.1.6 respecting the original Apache 2.0 license terms.

What is IDEA?

Integrated Digital Engineering on AWS (IDEA) is an evolution of SOCA (Scale Out Computing on AWS). IDEA empowers teams of engineers, scientists and researchers with a cloud environment to host engineering tools required for end-to-end product development workloads.

IDEA supports two main computation workstyles. eVDI (Virtual Desktops) & Scale Out Compute / HPC (OpenPBS based job submission)

IDEA provides all the backend infrastructure to support these worksryles on AWS with a simple to use web interface, SSO, and more advanced user features.

IDEA can be a good solution for any compute or VDI workflow but often specializes in:

• Computer Aided Design – CAD
• Computer Aided Engineering - CAE
• Model Based Systems Engineering - MBSE
• Electronic Design Automation – EDA Using this solution, research and development (R&D) leaders enable engineers and designers to break-through development silos and accelerate the product development process.
• Large distributed compute and simulation jobs. 1-100k+ CPU and GPU cores. CFD/EFA/etc

Installation

Refer to IDEA Installation for installation instructions.

This solution collects anonymous operational metrics to help AWS improve the quality of the solution.

Filezilla Keyfile wont download

When setting up filezilla to download the keyfile in step 2 of the file transfer page, the hyperlink doesn't initiate any downloads

To get the version of the solution, you can look at the description of the created CloudFormation stack. For example, "(SO0021) - Video On Demand workflow with AWS Step Functions, MediaConvert, MediaPackage, S3, CloudFront and DynamoDB. Version v5.0.0". If the description does not contain the version information, you can look at the mappings section of the template:

Mappings:
  SourceCode:
    General:
      S3Bucket: "solutions"
      KeyPrefix: "scale-out-computing-on-aws/v2.0.0"

• Region: [e.g. us-east-1]
• Was the solution modified from the version published on this repository?
• If the answer to the previous question was yes, are the changes available on GitHub?
• Have you checked your service quotas for the sevices this solution uses?
• Were there any errors in the CloudWatch Logs?
