About This Guide

Memory Machine CE OpCenter

Memory Machine CE relies on the OpCenter, a server that you deploy on a virtual machine in a Cloud Service Provider (CSP) network. This guide provides instructions on how to install the OpCenter and how to use it to run containerized applications in the CSP's network.

Prerequisites

To install and run Memory Machine CE, you need an account with a CSP (such as AWS) and a working knowledge of the basic services the CSP offers.

Most, but not all, jobs require a job script — usually in the form of a shell script — that you provide.

Supported Clouds

Memory Machine CE is designed to work on any cloud infrastructure. The Dana Point 2.1 Release supports AWS and Alibaba Cloud. Support for Microsoft's Azure and Google Cloud is planned.
