A major shift is underway in the technical computing industry across technology, business models, and market structure. First, the data explosion – both from proliferation of devices and the growth of current iterative HPC models – along with the desire to quickly turn it into valuable insight, is driving the demand for both predictive and real-time analytics – using HPC. Second, the transition of technical and high performance computing workloads to the cloud has begun, and will accelerate over the next few years as a function of the powerful economic, accessibility, usability, and scalability requirements and forces. Third, while the demand for more powerful compute will continue, the challenges associated with storing large volumes of data and then feeding it to the compute engines will spur innovation in storage and interconnect technology. Finally, technology challenges such as energy efficiency will require more attention (and innovation) at all components of the SW stack. In this talk, Raj will discuss the current dynamics of the HPC market, how Intel is innovating to address these changing trends – both in the short and long term – all while keeping an ecosystem view in mind, and how our collaborations with key partners will fit together to enable a complete and affordable solution for the entire HPC ecosystem.
