Software Versions Required by Different Models

A resource pool for elastic clusters can use either Elastic Bare Metal Servers (BMSs) or Elastic Cloud Servers (ECSs) as nodes. Each node model has its own operating system (OS) and compatible CCE cluster versions. This document outlines the necessary software versions for each model to simplify image creation and software upgrades.

Remote direct memory access (RDMA) is a direct memory access from the memory of one computer into that of another without involving either one's operating system. RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) is a network protocol which allows RDMA over an Ethernet network. InfiniBand (IB) is a computer networking communications standard used in high-performance computing. It is used for data interconnect both among and within computers.
