Scalability¶

This page lists the scalability limits supported by Curoverse public beta cluster.

Note: These are not limitations of Arvados; they're limitations of the specific cluster configuration.

Maximum API Server Request Size¶

The maximum request size supported by the arvados API server in Curoverse public beta is 128MiB.

Thus this limits the size of the request that can be sent by a client when making an API request. For example, the manifest text used to create a new collection cannot exceed this limit.

Compute Nodes¶

Each compute node in Curoverse public beta cluster uses the configuration of 16 cores, 60GiB RAM, with 300GiB of scratch space on disk to run jobs.

The maximum number of simultaneous compute nodes is 256.

Docker¶

Docker is not available on the standard shell node in Curoverse public beta.

Users who would like to use a shell node to build Docker images can contact Curoverse support at support@curoverse.com and explain what they plan to work on.
