Scylla: A Mesos Framework for Container Based MPI Jobs Pankaj Saha, Angel Beltre, and Madhusudhan Govindaraju Cloud and Big Data Laboratory, State University of New York (SUNY) at Binghamton fpsaha4, abeltre1, mgovindag@binghamton.edu Abstract—Open source cloud technologies provide a wide range of support for creating customized compute node clusters to schedule tasks and managing resources. In cloud infrastruc- tures such as Jetstream and Chameleon, which are used for scientific research, users receive complete control of the Virtual Machines (VM) that are allocated to them. Importantly, users get root access to the VMs. This provides an opportunity for HPC users to experiment with new resource management technologies such as Apache Mesos that have proven scalability, flexibility, and fau
