An HPC team must preserve its existing scheduler and highly customized cluster topology while Azure provisions and scales nodes. Which direction fits?

Choose the single best answer.

A.App Service deployment slots as MPI node allocation
B.Azure CycleCloud with the team operating its scheduler
C.Azure Batch on the assumption that it preserves every external scheduler unchanged
D.Azure Container Registry as a scheduler

Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

Azure CycleCloud with the team operating its scheduler

CycleCloud is intended for customized HPC infrastructure with a customer-operated scheduler. Batch has its own pool/job/task model and does not automatically preserve every external scheduler; a registry and web slots do not allocate the required HPC scheduler topology.
