Nvidia acquires SchedMD, raising concerns over open‑source Slurm access
Nvidia announced the acquisition of SchedMD, the company behind the open‑source Slurm workload manager that runs on roughly 60% of the world’s supercomputers. Slurm is a critical component for training large language models and for government‑run high‑performance clusters. The deal has sparked anxiety among AI labs and supercomputing experts who fear Nvidia may prioritize its own needs.
