Not all important supercomputers are on the twice-a-year Top500 rankings of machines. …
It’s no secret that the hyperscalers and cloud builders are becoming the biggest drivers of the datacenter hardware portion of the IT market. …
If you are an HPC center in Europe, and particularly one that is funded by public funds, you are thinking about Arm-based CPUs in your supercomputers. …
The acquisitions last year of Nimbix, Visual BI, and Ideal GRP by Atos signaled a more aggressive push by the European HPC vendor into the cloud and tech services space and coincided with a plan to expand beyond its legacy business and into such new growth areas. …
Exascale supercomputing is just as important to Europe as it is to the United States and China, but each of these geopolitical regions on Earth has its own way of developing architectures, funding their development and production, and figuring out where the best HPC centers are to host such machines to maximize their effectiveness. …
Significant business and architectural changes can happen with 10X improvements, but the real milestones upon which we measure progress in computer science, whether it is for compute, storage, or networking, come at the 1,000X transitions. …
When it comes to application acceleration, having a deep understanding of the complex algorithms that underly most HPC and AI applications is perhaps the most important thing that can be brought to bear. …
Arm-based servers have had a somewhat checkered history that has seen many abortive attempts to challenge the X86 processor hegemony, but the firm appears bullish about its chances in the high performance computing (HPC) sector, where it believes its licensing model and the energy efficiency of its architecture give it an edge. …
The IT industry is at the doorstep of the long-awaited exascale era, which promises massive systems that can run at least one exaflops, or a quintillion (a billion billion) calculations per second, at 64-bit precision and a lot more than that at lower precision and even more using low-precision integer data pumped through their vector and matrix engines. …
