Platform LSF is the leading commercial workload management software used by thousands of customers in complex and challenging HPC environments. Platform LSF 7 Update 4 continues Platform’s strategy to deliver innovative functionality to the market including numerous enhancements. The latest version of Platform LSF is designed to give users greater control of resource allocations to jobs. Users can now minimize wait times and claim additional CPU power when necessary. As a flexible and scalable HPC solution, Platform LSF 7 Update 4 is more responsive to the needs of users while reducing administrator workload with delegation of control features.

Platform Analytics, the most comprehensive and robust analysis tool for Platform LSF environments, provides business user solutions for project and capacity planning, resource usage accounting and chargeback. Platform Analytics 7.1 now offers enhanced support for data loss protection and auto recovery. Platform RTM delivers timely information to effectively monitor and manage hosts, workloads and license data in your Platform LSF environment. This helps system administrators improve decision making, reduce costs and increase service levels. Platform RTM 1.5 adds support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5. In addition, deployment has been greatly simplified with a 30 minute end-to-end installation from a bootable CD.

"As the market leader, it is Platform’s goal to deliver ongoing frequent updates to our products, allowing customers to get more and more out of their resources and improve IT and end-user productivity", stated Jingwen Wang, Vice President, Products, Platform Computing.
