Data Management in Engineering Simulations
Blog post from Rescale
Engineers and scientists often face challenges in managing vast amounts of simulation data, which can impede their focus on product development and design iteration. This issue arises as simulations become more complex, leading to larger and more numerous input and output files, some exceeding 100GB, and requiring multiple iterations and versions for a single project. The accumulation of redundant and unnecessary data complicates file sharing and tracking, resulting in wasted time. Rescale addresses this problem by providing low-cost cloud HPC storage and features like Clone and Share, which streamline file management by automating the association, transfer, and version control of simulation data. This automation facilitates efficient metadata management, collaboration, and informed decision-making, thus allowing engineers and scientists to focus on solving real engineering challenges.
