HPC Observability
HPC cluster observability stack: Prometheus, Grafana, DCGM Exporter, SLURM Exporter and Alertmanager installation and configuration.
What is HPC Observability?
HPC observability gives you a single platform to see the real-time and historical state of your cluster infrastructure — from GPU utilization to SLURM queue depth. Mevasis designs, installs and deploys the open-source stack of Prometheus, Grafana, DCGM Exporter and Alertmanager, tailored specifically to your infrastructure. This enables your team to trace every failure to its root cause and make capacity planning decisions backed by data.
In an HPC environment, we build systems that can answer not 'something broke' but 'why did it break and which job was affected.' Observability is the layer that makes that difference.

How Is the Observability Stack Deployed?
Mevasis uses a five-phase process to analyze your existing cluster infrastructure, deploy exporters, configure Prometheus and Alertmanager, develop custom dashboards and hand the system over to your team.
Infrastructure Analysis
Cluster components, SLURM version and existing monitoring tools are examined to determine which exporters to install and Prometheus retention parameters.
Installation and Configuration
DCGM, SLURM and Node Exporters are distributed to all nodes via Ansible; Prometheus scrape intervals and Alertmanager notification channels are optimized.
Custom Dashboards and Handover
Cluster overview, GPU detail, SLURM job analysis and network/storage dashboards are created; hands-on training is given to your team and the system is handed over.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should this solution be chosen?
An HPC observability solution should be chosen in environments where multiple users or teams run workloads on a GPU or CPU cluster infrastructure, where monitoring resource utilization and capacity planning are critical. If you have difficulty finding the root cause of slow jobs, are experiencing outages caused by GPU or memory exhaustion, or need to prove SLA commitments, this solution is the right choice for you.
How does Mevasis deliver this solution?
Mevasis designs, deploys and configures the data collection layer — consisting of DCGM Exporter, SLURM Exporter, Node Exporter and Prometheus — together with the Grafana visualization layer and Alertmanager notification layer as a complete system. Our experienced engineers analyze your existing cluster infrastructure, create customized dashboards and alerting rules, and train your team on effective use of the system.
How is pricing structured?
Because the scope of observability solutions varies by cluster size, number of components to be monitored, custom dashboard requirements and support duration, pricing is project-specific.
