 Job schedulers are responsible for scheduling user jobs, that is, determining where and when jobs should be executed. In the context of the cloud, job schedulers interact with resource orchestrators to acquire/release resources on-demand, which is different from an on-premises environment where resources are fixed and fully available all the time. The most common HPC job schedulers are Slurm, OpenPBS, PBSPro, and LSF.

 Monitoring is a crucial aspect of managing an HPC environment in the cloud, ensuring optimal performance, reliability, and security. Effective monitoring allows administrators to gain real-time insights into system performance, detect and address issues promptly, and make informed decisions to optimize resource utilization. Key metrics such as CPU and memory usage, job execution times, and network throughput provide valuable information about the health and efficiency of the infrastructure.

 One of the key component's users interact with in an on-premises environment is the job scheduler (for example, Slurm, PBS, and LSF). During a lift-and-shift process, users should retain the same level of interaction with these schedulers. However, the difference is that resources are no longer static; they're provisioned on-demand.

 Typically, resources in an on-premises environment are fully available for usage. When you migrate to the cloud, resources need to be provisioned (that is, set-up and configured). This requirement is a core difference between on-premises and cloud environments. Resource orchestrator's provisions the compute nodes and other components (for example, storage and network), **on demand**, to allow the execution of user jobs.

 Managing compute nodes in an HPC cloud environment involves careful consideration of virtual machine (VM) types, images, and quota limits. Testing key on-premises workloads in the cloud helps assess the cost-benefit of different VM SKUs, allowing for more informed hardware decisions over time. Azure provides preconfigured HPC images for Ubuntu and Alma Linux, which include necessary drivers and libraries, simplifying the deployment process. Custom images can also be created using available resources from the Azure HPC image repository. Additionally, it’s important to plan resource usage carefully and consult with Azure to avoid quota limitations, especially when scaling across multiple regions.

 A Virtual Machine (VM) image is a snapshot of a virtual machine's operating system, software, configurations, and data stored at a specific point in time. It's a valuable asset that encapsulates most of what is required to enable virtual machines to run end-user jobs.
