Faster Scratch Storage (WEKA Storage Pool)

The WEKA Storage cluster is mounted on the Aoraki compute cluster at /weka/<Research Group> or /weka/<user>. The WEKA platform <https://www.weka.io/>_ is a high-performance storage solution ideal for temporary data used in high-performance computing jobs.

When to use /weka/ storage

• High I/O Performance Fast scratch storage typically offers higher input/output (I/O) performance compared to regular storage solutions. This can significantly speed up tasks that involve large amounts of data read/write operations, such as simulations, data analysis, and scientific computations.

The WEKA cluster, with its all-flash array and 100Gb networking, is ideal for high-speed data handling and ensures optimal performance for your high-performance computing tasks.
