| 4 | |||
| 5 | Node manager manages compute resources in a cloud environment, where the number of compute nodes can be scaled as needed. |
||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | Node Manager starts and stops compute nodes on demand, taking into account site parameters (e.g. a desired number of permanent compute nodes). |
||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | For a bare metal Arvados installation the number of compute nodes available tends to be static, and as such Node Manager is not needed. |
||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | Node Manager currently supports AWS and GCP. |
