High Performance Computing news stories

AMD has showcased an expanded presence and growing preference in high-performance computing at this year's Supercomputing Conference 2021.

Dell Technologies has released new open-source software, Omnia, to better manage the intersection of high-performance computing, AI, and data analytics.

AMD has today launched a new EPYC processor designed for the data center industry, cloud, and enterprise customers.

The EC2 P4d, designed for machine learning and high-performance computing environment, features eight A100 GPUs and 400 Gbps of network bandwidth.

HPE's Cray supercomputing line aims to answer the challenges posed by the new exascale era, such as massive data growth, modelling, AI, and more.

“In the data-centric era deriving insights and value from across multiple datasets will be a key to success for business and government alike. We look forward to boosting the UK’s capacity for data-driven innovation through this initiative.”

Google Cloud is the first company to offer the new NVIDIA GPU as part of the Accelerator-Optimised VM (A2) instance family.

The new ThinkSystem SR645 and SR665 two-socket server platforms are designed with more CPU cores, and a larger memory footprint, as well as I/O connectivity for performance workloads. 

“We have experienced an extreme growth momentum in recent weeks driven by the high demand for computing capacity and in particular for HPC solutions."

“Cosmological simulations like galaxy formation and black hole creation require hundreds of thousands of cores connected to each other to run."

"The technology advantages of InfiniBand make it the interconnect of choice for compute and storage infrastructures.”

“Empowering scientists with the latest in advanced computing and data analytics solutions is a key component of Supermicro’s mission."

Intel and the Department of Energy are building potentially the world’s first exascale supercomputer, capable of a quintillion calculations per second.

The new supercomputer delivering 6.6 petaflops will support research in a wide range of fields.

It will be installed at the High Performance Computing Center of the University of Stuttgart and will be the world's fastest for industrial production.

“Last year, we set a goal to become the world’s largest provider of TOP500 computing systems by 2020. We have reached that goal two years ahead."

Later this year Hydro66 will make available 8 MW and 400 racks over 1,000 square metres of IT space at its colocation data centre in Sweden.

Zenuity has just announced Dell EMC as a strategic partner to provide a managed high performance computing (HPC) environment.

Pure Storage has forayed into new grounds after announcing the industry’s first comprehensive AI ready infrastructure, named AIRI.

A new survey from Dell Technologies has revealed the UK is lagging behind its EU counterparts in tech investment like AI, VR and HPC.

"That's where I think we are positioned well. But I'm always fearful, I think if you don't fear around you, you're never going to be successful."

Queen Mary University of London and Newcastle University are the first academia in the UK to deploy IBM's new system for HPC, data analytics and AI.

The Chinese giant announced the launch of the new products for Europe at MWC 18, stressing its commitment to the region for the future.

London was recently named as one of the smart city leaders, but there is still a long way to go as it requires huge amounts of computing power.
