#SC21: @HPC_Hyperion #HPC Market briefing (without the breakfast this time 😉 )

Despite Covid, #Fugaku single-handedly saved the HPC revenue numbers for 2020 - a billion dollars makes a difference!
@HPC_Hyperion .@HPE is the top #HPC vendor, followed by @DellTech

@Fujitsu_Global jumped due #3 due to #Fugaku - so this is their 15 minutes of fame :-)

@InspurServer & @lenovo make up the Top 5

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion The broader on-prem #HPC market

#HPC #storage remains #2 after compute, which is the biggest item as usual

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC on-prem market forecast - 5 year CAGR is 8%, reaching $20B by 2025

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC enabled #AI market

#ML focused systems make up bulk today

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion Future #HPC systems design - how to balance diverse technology options for multiple workloads

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion Using #AI models to support large simulations

#HPC #SC21
@HPC_Hyperion Bob Sorenson updates #Exascale #supercomputer plans around the world - starting with the US

#HPC #SC21
@HPC_Hyperion Japan - #Fugaku is a great system with an applications first focus and fantastic performance

But NOT an #exascale system, IMHO

#HPC #SC21
@HPC_Hyperion China - already have a couple of #Exascale systems but seem reluctant to publicly announce or submit to #Top500

We will find out later today if they change their mind

38 million cores in Sunway system!!

#HPC #SC21
@HPC_Hyperion @EuroHPC_JU UK (post-Brexit) plans

#HPC #SC21
@HPC_Hyperion @EuroHPC_JU #HPC's role in Edge computing

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion @EuroHPC_JU #HPC has been involved with edge computing from before it was called Edge!

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC Applications Market view - data from ISVs - so I assume it does not capture work done in-house at DOE labs and other #supercomputer centers

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion Top #HPC applications per vertical

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC applications in the #cloud - several related to #ML/#DL/#AI

Top 3 barriers for cloud HPC

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC #Cloud Forecast - surpass $9B by 2025

Caveat: does not include #cloud only users?? Not sure I understood this correctly

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC on #cloud seems to be growing on almost all verticals - good news for vendors who have been focusing on this capability - AWS, Azure, Google, Oracle, ....

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion Complete #HPC Market view with #cloud included

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion Different approaches to #HPC #Cloud

Are these deals really cloud?

o Microsoft Azure deal with MetOffice UK

o HPE GreenLake - hybrid cloud or just a different form of on-prem?
@HPC_Hyperion What's next for #HPC #Cloud?

Cloud HPC will continue to grow and cannot be ignored
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC #Storage growth continues - both on-prem and in #cloud

Interesting - Cloud HPC storage CAGR is almost double that for on-prem CAGR

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC file systems

Surprised to see ext4 on the list!

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #HPC interconnects - @HPC_Hyperion decided to split system interconnects from #storage interconnects

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion New activity in #HPC #storage and in #interconnects since #ISC21

@RockportNetwork emerges from stealth - switchless networking

#CXL wins over GenZ

#SC21
@HPC_Hyperion #QuantumComputing - if you filer out the hype, is this current enthusiasm with QC investment a good or bad thing?

No mention of the IBM announcement from yesterday

#Top500 -Still waiting for #Exascale: Japan's #Fugaku outperforms all competition once again

@Azure system called Voyager-EUS2 was the only machine to shake up the top spots, claiming #10

top500.org/news/still-wai…

#HPC
#Top500: Only one change in the Top10 systems - Voyager-EUS2 @Azure using AMD EPYC CPU and Nvidia A100 GPU

Perlmutter @NERSC improved its performance to 70.9 Pflop/s but remained at #5 on the list

#SC21 #HPC
#Top500:

#Fugaku continues to hold the No. 1 position that it first earned in June 2020

It was co-developed by Riken and Fujitsu and is based on Fujitsu’s ARM A64FX processor

It uses Fujitsu’s Tofu D interconnect

Interesting read: @jonmasters uses the return of @PGelsinger to @intel as an excuse to talk about how the semiconductor world has changed with a small number of #cloud vendors calling the shots

medium.com/@jon.masters/p…

#HPC #AI
@jonmasters 2/
The future has only 6 or 7 customers driving demand

They are both extremely sophisticated AND more than capable of taking matters into their own hands, in-house

They’re larger than any of the component suppliers from which they source their compute needs today

#Cloud
@jonmasters 3/

The “lock in” of the next decade won’t be literally “your software only runs on my #Cloud but more that it “runs better on my cloud”

Because I coupled a “right sized” design with the right accelerators and made it “just work”!
