AWS re:Invent 2014 | (BDT208) Finding High Performance in the Cloud for HPC

Опубликовано 24 ноября 2014, 18:53

Hear how high performance for HPC workloads can be found in the cloud. In this panel session, Nicole Hemsoth, Editor in Chief of Cloud Insights and of HPCWire, hosts a lively discussion with experts who address the reality that big data and high performance computing performance cannot be sacrificed. They explore how HPC users have been finding the AWS cloud a cost-effective way to get large-scale, performance-sensitive jobs done in a fraction of the time and without the heavy lifting required to maintain on-premises systems. Users are always looking for more (and more interesting) ways to implement their HPC jobs in the cloud. From working with GPU-powered instances to instances with more memory or capability, panelists explore what performance really means in the cloud, how on-site, traditional supercomputing compares to the cloud, and what the future may be for HPC end users with cloud services.
