For HPC And AI, Composability Might Trump Cheap Flops
Maximizing the aggregate amount of compute that can be brought to bear for any given pile of money is what traditional high performance computing is all about. …
The Era Of Big Memory Is Upon Us
If you reduce systems down to their bare essentials, everything exists in those systems to manipulate data in memory, and like human beings, all that really exists for any of us is what is in memory. …
Intel Tests Its Datacenter Teflon With 7 Nanometer Delay
There is such a thing as a string of bad luck, but we have always believed that luck is the residue of design, either good or bad. …
Taking A Deep Dive Into “Cooper Lake” Xeon SP Processors
Even before the coronavirus pandemic hit, Intel, the dominant maker of processors for servers on the planet, was rejiggering its product roadmaps behind the scenes in conjunction with its largest OEM partners as well the hyperscalers and large public cloud builders that drive about a third of its revenues these days. …
Intel Reacts To The Competitive Heat On Its Xeons
Whatever is going on with its competitive positioning against revitalized X86 server chip rival AMD, Intel clearly felt that it could not wait for the launch of its 14 nanometer “Cooper Lake” and 10 nanometer “Ice Lake” Xeon SP processors to address it. …
Intel Fills In The First Half Server Pothole – And Then Some
Let’s face it. Given how poorly the server market was doing in the final quarter of 2018 and the first two quarters of 2019, we had no idea how well or poorly 2019 might end up for Intel’s Data Center Group and the server industry at large. …
Doing The Math On Future Exascale Supercomputers
We are not shy of playing guessing games here at The Next Platform, as you all well know. …
The Myth Of Peak Performance
High performance computing isn’t what it used to be. Performance, in particular, has become a slippery metric as a result of the design constraints of modern clustered systems. …
Getting Around The Limits Of Memory To Accelerate Applications
Forget in-memory computing for the moment because it requires a complete re-architecting of applications and most of the time the underlying hardware, too. …
