Ansys Applications that Support Ansys HPC Platform Services

Several Ansys applications offer support for Ansys HPC Platform Services. Support is provided in two ways:

  • Templates in Ansys HPC Manager. Task definition templates define solver jobs, including the application to be used for a simulation. Ansys HPC Platform Services ships with a default set of application-specific templates, enabling you to create projects using the Ansys HPC Manager web app.

  • Native integration. Some applications have built-in support for Ansys HPC Platform Services, enabling you to submit jobs to Ansys HPC Platform Services directly from the application.

The following table indicates the Ansys applications that are compatible with Ansys HPC Platform Services and the type of support offered for each application.
