IOWarp Core: High-performance distributed I/O and task execution runtime

IOWarp Core

High-performance distributed I/O and task execution runtime for scientific computing and HPC workloads.

Overview

IOWarp Core is a PyPI package that provides automated installation and build management for the complete IOWarp ecosystem. It orchestrates the compilation and installation of four core C++ components:

1. Context Transport Primitives - High-performance shared memory library with IPC-safe containers and synchronization primitives
2. Runtime - Distributed task execution runtime with microsecond-level latencies
3. Context Transfer Engine - Multi-tiered, heterogeneous-aware I/O buffering system
4. Context Assimilation Engine - Data ingestion and processing engine for heterogeneous storage systems

All components are built from source using CMake with minimalistic dependencies (no CUDA, ROCm, compression, or encryption by default).

Features

• Automated Build Process: Clones, builds, and installs all components in the correct dependency order
• CMake Integration: Seamlessly integrates C++ CMake projects with Python packaging
• Minimalistic Dependencies: Built without optional features (CUDA, ROCm, MPI, ZMQ) for easier deployment
• Performance-Oriented: All components optimized for HPC and scientific computing workloads

Requirements

System Requirements

• CMake ≥ 3.10
• C++17 compatible compiler (GCC ≥9, Clang ≥10, MSVC ≥2019)
• Git (for cloning component repositories)
• Python ≥ 3.8

Operating Systems

• Linux (Ubuntu 20.04+, CentOS 8+, or similar)

Installation

From PyPI

pip install iowarp-core
