Download HTCondor 9.10.1 / 9.0.15

The HTCondor Team at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has released new feature and long-term support versions of its HTCondor workload management system. The version numbers have ended up at 9.10.1 and 9.0.15. HTCondor focuses on managing compute-intensive tasks and can distribute them over several connected nodes. The user sends their task to HTCondor, which then handles the process based on set policies and the availability of connected resources, and finally sends the results back to the user. For example, HTCondor can control a dedicated Beowulf cluster, but also regular desktops that have nothing to do for a while. During the day SC16 Google, Fermilab and the HTCondor Team have a 160k-core cloud-based elastic compute cluster demonstratedand in 2020 the National Science Foundation selected HTCondor as part of her Partnership to Advance Throughput Computing.
