CAPS Cloud
CAPS Cloud is the collection of hardware infrastructure for research purposes. It consists a set of Servers, Workstations and Machines with highly configurable settings. The main purpose of CAPS Cloud is to accelerate and support our research in various fields. In addition, some of the machines can be used as a testbed before deploying application to large-scale system like SuperMUC.

Access
Access can be granted by employees of the chair, e.g., for conduting experiments for a thesis or guided research. A valid RBG/in.tum.de account is strictly required.
The RBG account (both, username and password) is used for login on all machines; the password can only be changed/reset through RBG. All machines are only accessible within the chair network. External access is possible via a proxy jump via a login VM:
ssh -J <rbgid>@login.caps.in.tum.de <rbgid>@<hostname>.caps.in.tum.de
It is highly recommended to put your public SSH key on both, the login VM and the target machine itself.
Most of the machines have no job scheduling system, therefore check whether someone else is currently using the machine before conducting experiments using w
and/or top
/htop
. In any case, do not use the login VM for any experiments.
