Humanities asks a simple question:

What does it mean to be human?

#HPC #AI
@Supercomputing @vgcerf #SC21 Keynote:

Analyze Shakespeare's plays looking for:

If And But

can help figure out if it can be classified as a Comedy, Tragedy or History

#HPC #AI
@Supercomputing @vgcerf IF @HPC_Guru was open

#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

#Fugaku made the difference in getting the 2020 #HPC Market for on-prem compute to show minimal growth over 2019

@HPC_Hyperion Market Update at #ISC21
@HPC_Hyperion The folks at @HPC_Hyperion decided to divide the #Supercomputer segment into 3 categories

Leadership/#Exascale class systems are getting the big $$

#HPC #ISC21
@HPC_Hyperion Market forecast - 6.8% CAGR till 2024

#Exascale is the major factor for growth

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

#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”!
