CIQ Names Bjorn Hovland President Bjorn Hovland RENO, Nev., – December 17, 2025 – CIQ, the founding support and services partner of Rocky Linux and high-performance software infrastructure company, today announced the promotion of Bjorn Hovland from chief operating officer to president, reporting to founder and CEO Gregory Kurtzer. CIQ said Hovland’s elevation reflects CIQ’s strategic positioning as AI infrastructure decentralizes and the operating system emerges as a critical competitive advantage for nations and enterprises building next-generation AI capabilities. “We’re witnessing a fundamental shift in how the world approaches AI infrastructure,” said Hovland. “Nations and enterprises are recognizing that the operating system isn’t just a commodity, it’s a strategic asset that determines speed, cost-efficiency and sovereignty. Rocky Linux and our complete infrastructure stack give organizations the control they need to build AI ecosystems on their own terms, without vendor lock-in or compromise on performance. CIQ is positioned uniquely at the intersection of open source innovation, enterprise-grade reliability and high-performance computing expertise.” The global AI landscape is fragmenting from a centralized model to a multi-polar architecture, with new centers of AI influence emerging across the Middle East, Asia, and Europe. This decentralization is driving demand for infrastructure that balances critical requirements. CIQ’s portfolio, spanning Rocky Linux enterprise distributions, Fuzzball for cluster orchestration, Warewulf Pro for HPC management and Ascender Pro for automation, addresses these requirements directly, providing the full infrastructure stack needed for sovereign AI deployments. “Bjorn is the ideal partner to execute our vision at this inflection point,” said Gregory Kurtzer, founder and CEO of CIQ. “He combines rare technical depth with operational discipline and strategic acumen. As we scale to meet unprecedented global demand for sovereign AI infrastructure, Bjorn’s ability to synthesize complex competitive dynamics and drive execution in real time makes him the perfect person to lead our day-to-day operations and accelerate our growth trajectory. This allows me to focus on our long-term technical and company strategy as we navigate this period of expansion.” In his COO role, Hovland drove product strategy, operations and go-to-market execution for CIQ‘s Enterprise Linux, HPC and cloud infrastructure solutions. A technologist and inventor, Hovland holds more than 20 U.S. patents across environmental sensing, connectivity and data systems. His career spans building award-winning platforms that merge advanced software engineering with commercial execution, including development work that generated over $100 million in revenue. His leadership bridges deep technical expertise with the operational rigor required to scale complex, high-performance products. CIQ also announced the appointment of Ramesh Srinivasan as vice president of sales. Most recently at Oracle, Srinivasan brings over 30 years of enterprise sales leadership with a proven track record scaling open source, Linux and cloud-native businesses from early-stage to significant market presence. Srinivasan’s expertise spans the full spectrum of modern infrastructure, from Linux and virtualization to cloud-native and AI-driven solutions. His ability to blend technical depth with strategic vision positions him to accelerate CIQ’s growth trajectory, expand market presence and strengthen relationships across enterprise, commercial and channel ecosystems. * share * share * share * share * email

CIQ Fuzzball Integration with PBS Professional and Slurm RENO, Nev., – December 4, 2025 – CIQ, the founding support and services partner of Rocky Linux and high-performance software infrastructure company, today announced that Fuzzball, its container orchestration platform, now integrates with PBS Professional and Slurm workload managers as backend provisioners. This integration enables organizations running traditional HPC clusters to adopt Fuzzball’s modern container orchestration and workflow capabilities while maintaining continuity with existing scheduler interfaces, or have the option to leverage Fuzzball’s intuitive web-based workflows when ready. For decades, PBS and Slurm have been the backbone of HPC computing at research institutions, national laboratories and enterprises worldwide. However, as organizations face increasing pressure to support both traditional simulation workloads and emerging AI/ML applications, they’re caught between the need to modernize and the risk of disrupting mission-critical operations. Fuzzball’s provisioner integration with PBS and Slurm solves this fundamental challenge by allowing these established schedulers to provision resources for Fuzzball workloads, creating a bridge to container-native infrastructure without requiring wholesale replacement of proven systems. “HPC centers have invested years building operational expertise, user training and workflow automation around their existing schedulers,” said David Godlove, senior HPC engineer at CIQ. “This integration gives organizations the best of both worlds. Users can continue submitting jobs directly to Slurm or PBS exactly as they always have, while gaining access to Fuzzball’s modern workflow catalog, container orchestration and hybrid cloud capabilities. It’s about choice and incremental modernization, not forced change.” The integration leverages Fuzzball’s new provisioner configuration system, which now allows administrators to designate PBS or Slurm clusters as resource providers alongside static compute pools and cloud resources like AWS. This unified approach delivers three key benefits for HPC organizations: * Reduce adoption risk for enterprise decision-makers: IT leaders can adopt Fuzzball without requiring budget for staff retraining, workflow rewrites or infrastructure replacement. Users familiar with PBS or Slurm commands can continue using them while gradually exploring Fuzzball’s workflow capabilities. The ability to leverage existing scheduler investments dramatically lowers the financial and operational risk of modernization initiatives. * Support hybrid workload requirements: As AI and machine learning workloads increasingly run alongside traditional HPC simulations, organizations need infrastructure that bridges both paradigms. Fuzzball’s provisioner integration allows teams to execute containerized AI workflows while traditional users continue their established job submission patterns. Administrators gain unified visibility and control across all workloads through Fuzzball’s interface, regardless of how jobs are submitted. * Enable fine-grained resource control: The integration includes powerful policy expression capabilities that give administrators precise control over resource allocation based on user identity, job requirements, organizational units and workload characteristics. Administrators can fully define resource specifications including CPU and GPU counts, memory requirements and cost per hour, then use policy expressions to route workloads intelligently across heterogeneous infrastructure including legacy clusters, cloud resources and specialized hardware. “Organizations shouldn’t have to choose between innovation and stability,” added David Godlove. “This provisioner integration is about giving HPC centers a practical path forward, one that respects their existing investments and operational workflows while opening the door to container orchestration, modern workflow management, hybrid cloud capabilities and the infrastructure flexibility that both traditional research and emerging AI workloads demand.” With the PBS and Slurm provisioner integration with Fuzzball, organizations can configure their existing schedulers as backend resource providers while adding Fuzzball’s workflow catalog, drag-and-drop workflow editor, automated data management and unified job monitoring to their computing environment, all without disrupting current user workflows. For organizations interested in learning more about Fuzzball’s integration with PBS Professional and Slurm, as well as additional improvements to Fuzzball over the past year, visit the CIQ blog, ciq.com/products/fuzzball or contact info@ciq.com. * share * share * share * share * email
