This summer, the Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe (PRACE) added to its roster another of the world’s most powerful high performance computing systems. …
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. …
It is hard to tell which part of the HPC market is more competitive: compute, networking, or storage. …
Moore’s Law may be slowing down performance increases in compute capacity, but InfiniBand networking did not get the memo. …
Would you rather have tens of thousands of customers who collectively spend a lot of money but their spending rises and falls with the gross domestic product, or a couple of dozen customers who spend almost as much on your product but who do so with massive checks that are not always predictable? …
With the increasing adoption of scale-out architectures and cloud computing, high performance interconnect (HPI) technologies have become a more critical part of IT systems. …
With the general availability of the “Knights Landing” Xeon Phi many core processors from Intel last month, some of the largest supercomputing labs on the planet are getting their first taste of what the future style of high performance computing could look like for the rest of us. …
Any time a ranking of a technology is put together, that ranking is always called into question as to whether or not it is representative of reality. …
Training a machine learning algorithm to accurately solve complex problems requires large amounts of data. …
