The landscape of HPC storage performance measurement is littered with unrealistic expectations. …
While it is not likely we will see large supercomputers on the International Space Station (ISS) anytime soon, HPE is getting a head start on providing more advanced on-board computing capabilities via a pair of its aptly-named “Apollo” water-cooled servers in orbit. …
With the network comprising as much as a quarter of the cost of a high performance computing system and being absolutely central to the performance of applications running on parallel systems, it is fair to say that the choice of network is at least as important as the choice of compute engine and storage hierarchy. …
For years, the pace of change in large-scale supercomputing neatly tracked with the curve of Moore’s Law. …
There is a lot of change coming down the pike in the high performance computing arena, but it has not happened as yet and that is reflected in the current Top 500 rankings of supercomputers in the world. …
There is increasing interplay between the worlds of machine learning and high performance computing (HPC). …
A shared appetite for high performance computing hardware and frameworks is pushing both supercomputing and deep learning into the same territory. …
Whether being built for capacity or capability, the conventional wisdom about memory provisioning on the world’s fastest systems is changing quickly. …
The United States for years was the dominant player in the high-performance computing world, with more than half of the systems on the Top 500 list of the world’s fastest supercomputers being housed in the country. …
