Bringing supercomputing to the masses
Blog post from Rescale
The computer industry is experiencing a significant transformation, with today's devices offering more computational power than past technologies, driven by Moore's Law and the growth of high-performance computing (HPC). HPC, which involves supercomputing and parallel processing to tackle complex problems, has seen contributions from companies like Cray, IBM, and Intel. The demand for computing power is growing rapidly, and cloud computing is revolutionizing access to HPC through scalable, pay-as-you-go models. Rescale, a company specializing in cloud-based HPC solutions, aims to democratize HPC by providing a platform that allows easy deployment and management of resources, integrating over 180 pre-configured software packages, and offering a global network of HPC resources. Rescale is committed to empowering innovation across various fields by removing barriers to HPC access and has partnered with IBM Cloud as a preferred provider to expand its infrastructure. CEO Joris Poort, who has an extensive background in engineering and business, leads Rescale in its mission to enhance the capabilities of engineers, scientists, and innovators worldwide.
