The Breed4Food (B4F) cluster is a joint High Performance Compute (HPC) infrastructure of the Animal Breeding and Genomics Centre and four major breeding companies: Cobb Vantress, CRV, Hendrix Genetics, and TOPIGS.
Anunna is a new cluster derived from parts of the HPC AgroGenomics cluster as of January 2019, combined with new infrastructure.
 
== Rationale and Requirements for a new cluster ==
The B4F Cluster is, in a way, the 7th pillar of the [http://www.breed4food.com/en/show/Breed4Food-initiative-reinforces-the-Netherlands-position-as-an-innovative-country-in-animal-breeding-and-genomics.htm Breed4Food programme]. While the other six pillar revolve around specific research theme, the Cluster represents a joint infrastructure. The rationale behind the cluster is to enable the increasing computational needs in the field of genetics and genomics research, by creating a joint facility that will generate benefits of scale, thereby reducing cost. In addition, the joint infrastructure is intended generate cross-organisational knowledge transfer. In that capacity, the B4F Cluster acts as a joint (virtual) laboratory where researchers across the isle (academic and applied) can benefit from each other's know how. Lastly, the joint cluster, housed at Wageningen University campus, allows retaining vital and often confidential data sources in a controlled environment, something that cloud services such as Amazon Cloud or others usually can not guarantee.
 
== Process of Acquisition and financing ==
The B4F cluster was financed through CAT-AGRO <insert further details>
 
== Architecture of the cluster ==
overview of nodes, fs, etc.
 
== Housing at Theia ==
include some pictures
 
== Access Policy ==
etc
 
== Cluster Management Software and Scheduler ==
The B4F cluster uses Bright Cluster Manager software for overall cluster management, and Slurm as job scheduler.
