Adaptyst is a novel open-source performance analysis project started at CERN as part of the SYCLOPS EU-funded project, currently in an early development phase with the ambitious roadmap for the next few years. The ultimate goal of the tool is using both static and dynamic methods to suggest the most optimal compute solution performance-wise (latency, throughput, energy efficiency, budget cost etc.) for a given workflow and requirements while considering all sides of computation (software, hardware, storage, networking etc.) regardless of whether this is embedded/edge, high-performance, distributed/WLCG, custom computing, or a combination of thereof.

Thanks to its modular design, Adaptyst can integrate existing work such as profilers and has potential of addressing users' software, hardware, and system performance needs in a future-proof way. The tool currently concentrates on profiling and already supports all CPUs running Linux (thanks to the linuxperf module), with the support of NVIDIA GPUs and bare-metal software running on SoC's coming soon.

In light of the fragmentation of performance analysis tools and increasing computing requirements at CERN at all levels due to e.g. HL-LHC upgrades, the project may become useful for various use cases in different parts of the Organisation..
