The "Cloud" is an excellent project execution environment option in situations where large simulation volumes require completion within a short timeframe (e.g. Monte Carlo runs).<br>

 

Three options are available. Click the links below for more information:<br>

Organisations with access to Cloud hardware may host Network Licences within their own cloud domain (private or public).

Let BMT help you manage your TUFLOW simulation execution on the cloud. This service is designed for bulk simulation of any TUFLOW product (Classic, HPC or FV).<br>

* Software licences are scaled to meet your project demand (i.e. this is independent of any in-house licences you may own).

* This service has no limitations in terms of hardware type. We offer simulation on a range of CPU and GPU virtual machines.<br>

This service is well suited to mass production runs of an established model (often required for design event modelling or a Monte Carlo assessment). It is less suited to model build activities that require regular modeller/model interaction and iterations. We recommend model build activities be completed using a standard client licence as it is typically the most cost effective and time efficient option.<br>

Powered by Parallel Works, Jacobs have developed Flood Cloud.

Flood Cloud gives the modeller full simulation control on a cloud environment.

* The service links to pre-defined CPU cloud hardware. This specific hardware type was selected following extensive hydraulic model benchmarking.

* The Jacobs Flood Cloud offering is presently limited to TUFLOW Classic/HPC CPU based simulations. TUFLOW HPC GPU hardware and TUFLOW FV simulations are not yet supported.
