Hosting the EasyBuild community: Deucalion at the centre of EUM 2026

04/05/2026

Hosted by Deucalion, the 11th EasyBuild User Meeting brought together the international HPC community in Guimarães for three days of technical exchange and collaboration.

 

The meeting combined hands-on sessions, technical discussions and networking moments, creating space for users, developers and maintainers to share practical experiences and explore the latest developments in EasyBuild.

 

Besides hosting, the Deucalion team contributed directly to the programme. Bernardo Malaca, from the User Support team, participated in the EasyBuild site talks, alongside representatives from Vrije Universiteit Brussel and CERN, sharing practical insights from operating and supporting HPC environments.

 

Participants also had the opportunity to visit the Deucalion supercomputer, strengthening the connection between the software tools explored throughout the event and a real EuroHPC infrastructure.

 

By contributing to the EasyBuild User Meeting, Deucalion reinforced its role as an active player in the European HPC community, promoting knowledge exchange and collaboration between users, developers and infrastructure providers.
