ACTIVATE governs high-performance computing and AI resources across clouds and on-premises clusters.
ACTIVATE brings high-performance computing and AI infrastructure into one control plane. Teams use it to provision clusters, connect cloud and on-premises resources, control access, track budgets, and run reproducible workflows. The platform supports both HPC schedulers and Kubernetes environments.
Parallel Works offers ACTIVATE through software licensing and deployment support. Its documented capabilities include application sessions, shared storage, integrations, and AI-provider budget controls. A High Security Platform configuration supports government workloads within an IL5-authorized boundary; other planned capabilities remain on the product roadmap.
