Abstract: One of the issues with HPC clusters is that the prerequisite knowledge required to use them is large, making the learning cost high for novice users. Moreover, it is desirable to run graphical user interface applications with interactive operations on the compute nodes, but the procedure is complicated.

We describe how we introduced Open OnDemand, a web portal that enables easy use of the computing resources of an HPC cluster, to Fugaku, a Japanese flagship supercomputer. To introduce the resources to new users, we developed an adapter that enables the job scheduler used in Fugaku to be used from Open OnDemand. In addition, to further improve user convenience, we developed applications that enable data sharing between Open OnDemand and external storages. This paper describes the various features we have given to Open OnDemand for Fugaku and the development of the data sharing applications.
