Distributed Model on Demand (DMOD)

DMOD is an extensible suite of software tools for creating and running specialized compute environments (and in some sense the environments themselves). The primary goal for DMOD is to make it easier to develop, test, and experiment with scientific models, with particular emphasis on models run through the NextGen framework.

As of Fall 2023, the project is in an early Beta stage. Infrastructure and workflows have been initially developed with the NextGen framework in mind, though the intent is to work toward a generalized design.

Architecture Overview

The below diagram shows an architecture overview of a fully deployed DMOD. Rounded boxes represent services. Lines that connect boxes represent communication between services and optionally inline text specifies the transport protocol used (e.g. WS - WebSocket). Subgraphs (e.g. requests net) represent one or more Docker networks and show the networks a service is a member of.

Services and Stacks

  • Data service - Primary data and metadata store that houses model input, output, and evaluation data. This service is also responsible for creating Docker volumes to support model execution job environments (e.g. model input data).
  • Evaluation service -
  • Monitor service - Monitors and updates the status of model execution job environments.
  • Partitioner service - Partitions NextGen hydrofabric domains to enable parallel execution (mpi) of NextGen model runs.
  • Request service - API gateway that coordinates communication with DMOD backend services.
  • Scheduler service - Schedules and commences model execution jobs and their associated environments.

Stacks

  • GUI
  • Main
  • Object store

Networks

  • Internal - Primary network for service to service communication
  • MPI - Network in which model execution environments and related services communicate
  • Requests - Ingress network
