How do I size my Gurobi architecture?
IntroductionGurobi can be used in many different architectures, ranging from development on a single laptop or Databricks notebook, to a cluster of Compute Server instances that together solve mode...

What is a Floating Compute Server architecture?
Components and responsibilitiesIn any architecture involving Gurobi, we have three key responsibilities: Constructing mathematical models (and processing solutions) Solving these models Licensing W...

How do I use Gurobi with open-source modeling frameworks?
IntroductionGurobi can be accessed through our own API in many programming languages, including gurobipy for Python. Although we recommend using the official APIs, many of our users come from a sit...
-
What information is shared with Gurobi when using WLS licenses?
Summary: None of your input or mathematical model data are shared with us when using WLS. The only information shared, is to validate your license and uniquely identify your container/machine. Read...
-
How many cores does my model need?
CPU cores are the main resources that determine Gurobi performance, as they deliver the computational power for optimizing your models. While many optimization models benefit from parallelism (allo...

How do I use C# CancellationToken to terminate an optimization job in Gurobi?
In some long-running optimization jobs, it may be desired to interrupt the job based on conditions that may or may not depend on the state of the optimization job itself. While Gurobi provides call...

What are cores and threads?
Mathematical optimization is a compute-intensive task. For this reason, the choice of (virtual) hardware is quite relevant as it may have an impact on the performance of your model and solver. Unfo...

Databricks: Architecture and licensing
In the previous article we gave a general introduction to Databricks concepts and architecture. Here we will look more specifically at the use of Gurobi on Databricks. For practical instructions on...

Databricks: Installation
In previous articles we looked at Databricks concepts and architecture, as well as the various architecture and licensing options for using Gurobi on Databricks. In this article we will focus on ge...

Databricks: Introduction
This article introduces Databricks from a Gurobi perspective. We aim to explain high-level what the main concepts are and what the underlying architecture looks like. The goal is to understand wher...
