Quantum #21

Issue #21 of the weekly HPC newsletter by HMx Labs.

Quantum #21

I’m done roaming around volcanos in Auvergne and will be working remotely from this new desk for the next week or two:

Geneva adjacent in the Rhone Alps region of France. Hopefully will take the opportunity to catch up with some of you in person and if you’d like to meet for a coffee or lunch let me know! I will probably in Zurich at some point in the coming weeks also.

Quite a busy week in HPC! Fair few updates of interest from the cloud providers and also elsewhere. Details below as ever.  Not much from us this week though… will try and fix that for next week 😊

You’re as welcome as ever to contribute, please drop us an email at [email protected] for anything you’d like to see featured or if you’d like to write for Flux by HMx Labs yourself.
