h1. Node Manager 

 h2. Overview 

 Node Manager manager manages compute resources in a cloud environment, where the number of compute nodes can be scaled as needed.  

 Node Manager starts and stops compute nodes on demand, taking into account site parameters (e.g. a desired number of permanent compute nodes). 

 For a bare metal Arvados installation the number of compute nodes available tends to be static, and as such Node Manager is not needed. 

 Node Manager currently supports AWS and GCP.
