Robin Knowles – The Beginner’s Guide to OpenFOAM on AWS

Have you outgrown your compute power?

If you’re an OpenFOAM user who’s reached the limit of their local compute power, then this course is designed just for you. It’ll take you from first contact with AWS, all the way through to running your own OpenFOAM jobs in the cloud. It’s a quick-start that will enable you to offload some (or all) of your OpenFOAM jobs to the cloud – productively and cost-effectively.

• Maybe you need to run bigger CFD models & your local machines just aren’t up to the job?
• Perhaps you need to run more CFD models without resorting to managing a long & complex job queue?
• Are you “borrowing” your colleagues’ machines to run jobs overnight – but they’re still running when they get in the next morning?
• Are your CAD workstations always tied-up with running OpenFOAM jobs instead?

If you’re looking to do more with OpenFOAM, without having to buy any more compute power, then offloading your simulations to the AWS cloud might well be the answer you’ve been looking for.
