Random Bytes Misadventures in HPC Cloud Migration #1 Moving your HPC workloads to the cloud? Grab your popcorn.
Random Bytes The Hpcomputosaurus-rex Let's face it, HPC is a bit of a dinosaur. An Hpcomputosaurus-rex, if you will. And just a heads-up, the 'h' and 'p' are silent in case you were wondering. Sure, HPC still tries to mingle with the cool AI kids but who’s it fooling?
Random Bytes Balancing Cost & Performance In #HPC, as in motorsport, often it is not about all about raw performance but rather, balancing several parameters to achieve the fastest possible results.
Random Bytes Racing Lines & HPC HPC is used for F1, but what can HPC learn from the world of motor racing?
Random Bytes Chasing seconds and cents Chasings tenths of a second on track or in your HPC workload? Got money to burn or a budget to stick to?
Random Bytes Raspberry Risk Ever wondered how many Raspberry Pis it takes to run your risk analytics? Sounds like the setup for a joke, right? Its not. And we have an answer!
HPC HPC on Cloud — Cost Optimisation & Cloud Economics A look at the economics of running a HPC system on a public cloud infrastructure. It looks at the impact of the performance differential between different types of VM, the impact of price variation and introduces the concept of a performance normalised price to allow easier comparison of VMs.
HPC HPC on Cloud for Financial Risk — A Comparative Analysis This article presents the results of running the COREx benchmark on over 650 different VM types across the three major cloud providers. It attempts to contextualize these results and help HPC practitioners interpret them to optimise their systems, as well as discuss the methodology employed.
