If you really want to know what is going on in the HPC market, you have to be careful about using the Top 500 rankings of “supercomputers” as a yardstick. …
By its very nature, HPC isn’t exactly cheap to do. Even moderate sized systems ring in at many hundreds of thousands of dollars. …
Back in the late 1970s and early 1980s, big iron in datacenters had to have water cooling, which was a pain in the neck in terms of the system and facilities engineering. …
Lustre has been an essential component of HPC systems for a decade and a half, and has experienced a somewhat turbulent history of shifting ownership followed by uncertain support from various backers as an open source project. …
Nuclear fusion, the opportunity to harness the power of the stars, has been a dream of humanity from around the time of the Manhattan Project. …
It has been difficult for the supercomputing community to watch the tools they have honed over many years get snatched up by a more commercially-oriented community like AI and popularized. …
The relationship between the HPC and AI communities is not unlike sibling rivalry; both come from the same stock computationally speaking but are fundamentally different individuals. …
One of the hardest things in the world to do at either the International Supercomputing Conference in June or the Supercomputing conference in November is getting out of bed and to the rapid-fire, data-packed breakfast hosted by Hyperion Research, formerly known as IDC’s HPC research division. …
The irony, of course, is that there is never a summit when it comes to supercomputing. …
