Deploying Cloud HPC in the Enterprise
Blog post from Rescale
Organizations are increasingly adopting hybrid and pure-play cloud-based High-Performance Computing (HPC) to maintain competitiveness, with a shift from on-premise clusters to scalable, secure, and elastic cloud environments. Joris Poort, CEO of Rescale Inc., highlights the industry shift towards simulation-driven design, which is enhancing product development through virtual prototyping and comprehensive simulations. This shift necessitates robust cloud HPC resources to handle variable demand, prompting companies to evaluate cloud providers based on global reach, hardware quality, and application availability. Rescale's cloud platform, tailored for Fortune 500 firms, offers a vast hardware footprint and extensive simulation software options, ensuring compliance with strict security standards like ITAR and SOC 2. It supports various deployment models and integrates with commercial schedulers, providing tools for administrators to manage security and user settings. The transition to cloud HPC involves addressing cost and security concerns, with Rescale facilitating the move to on-demand software licensing with application providers.
