• HPC: Not only development need to be rolled out fast also new versions of the OS needs to be deployed fast. As for HPC image solutions for the base OS and for basic software like the MPI stack are quite common. There are many solution: Bright Cluster Manager, Warewulf, OpenHPC just to name a few.
