# Azure Batch SDK for Java


Client library for running large-scale parallel and high-performance computing (HPC) batch jobs in Azure.


Installation


xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.azure</groupId>
    <artifactId>azure-compute-batch</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0-beta.5</version>
</dependency>

Prerequisites


- Azure Batch account

- Pool configured with compute nodes

- Azure subscription


Environment Variables


bash
AZURE_BATCH_ENDPOINT=https://<account>.<region>.batch.azure.com
AZURE_BATCH_ACCOUNT=<account-name>
AZURE_BATCH_ACCESS_KEY=<account-key>

Client Creation


With Microsoft Entra ID (Recommended)


java
import com.azure.compute.batch.BatchClient;
import com.azure.compute.batch.BatchClientBuilder;
import com.azure.identity.DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder;

BatchClient batchClient = new BatchClientBuilder()
    .credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
    .endpoint(System.getenv("AZURE_BATCH_ENDPOINT"))
    .buildClient();

Async Client


java
import com.azure.compute.batch.BatchAsyncClient;

BatchAsyncClient batchAsyncClient = new BatchClientBuilder()
    .credential(new DefaultAzureCredentialBuilder().build())
    .endpoint(System.getenv("AZURE_BATCH_ENDPOINT"))
    .buildAsyncClient();

With Shared Key Credentials


java
import com.azure.core.credential.AzureNamedKeyCredential;

String accountName = System.getenv("AZURE_BATCH_ACCOUNT");
String accountKey = System.getenv("AZURE_BATCH_ACCESS_KEY");
AzureNamedKeyCredential sharedKeyCreds = new AzureNamedKeyCredential(accountName, accountKey);

BatchClient batchClient = new BatchClientBuilder()
    .credential(sharedKeyCreds)
    .endpoint(System.getenv("AZURE_BATCH_ENDPOINT"))
    .buildClient();

Key Concepts


| Concept | Description |

|---------|-------------|

| Pool | Collection of compute nodes that run tasks |

| Job | Logical grouping of tasks |

| Task | Unit of computation (command/script) |

| Node | VM that executes tasks |

| Job Schedule | Recurring job creation |


Pool Operations


Create Pool


java
import com.azure.compute.batch.models.*;

batchClient.createPool(new BatchPoolCreateParameters("myPoolId", "STANDARD_DC2s_V2")
    .setVirtualMachineConfiguration(
        new VirtualMachineConfiguration(
            new BatchVmImageReference()
                .setPublisher("Canonical")
                .setOffer("UbuntuServer")
                .setSku("22_04-lts")
                .setVersion("latest"),
            "batch.node.ubuntu 22.04"))
    .setTargetDedicatedNodes(2)
    .setTargetLowPriorityNodes(0), null);

Get Pool


java
BatchPool pool = batchClient.getPool("myPoolId");
System.out.println("Pool state: " + pool.getState());
System.out.println("Current dedicated nodes: " + pool.getCurrentDedicatedNodes());

List Pools


java
import com.azure.core.http.rest.PagedIterable;

PagedIterable<BatchPool> pools = batchClient.listPools();
for (BatchPool pool : pools) {
    System.out.println("Pool: " + pool.getId() + ", State: " + pool.getState());
}

Resize Pool


java
import com.azure.core.util.polling.SyncPoller;

BatchPoolResizeParameters resizeParams = new BatchPoolResizeParameters()
    .setTargetDedicatedNodes(4)
    .setTargetLowPriorityNodes(2);

SyncPoller<BatchPool, BatchPool> poller = batchClient.beginResizePool("myPoolId", resizeParams);
poller.waitForCompletion();
BatchPool resizedPool = poller.getFinalResult();

Enable AutoScale


java
BatchPoolEnableAutoScaleParameters autoScaleParams = new BatchPoolEnableAutoScaleParameters()
    .setAutoScaleEvaluationInterval(Duration.ofMinutes(5))
    .setAutoScaleFormula("$TargetDedicatedNodes = min(10, $PendingTasks.GetSample(TimeInterval_Minute * 5));");

batchClient.enablePoolAutoScale("myPoolId", autoScaleParams);

Delete Pool


java
SyncPoller<BatchPool, Void> deletePoller = batchClient.beginDeletePool("myPoolId");
deletePoller.waitForCompletion();
