For the most part I look at HPC in existing industrial segments (aerospace, automotive, energy) as HPTC of the same class that we do in the US federal laboratories. In many cases they are solving the same problems with the same codes as we do on the federal side. "Enterprise HPC" in the context of this web site usually means applications in commercial settings that are applying big(ger) compute to core business applications (data search and management, ERP, logistics...) as well as industries that will use HPC in non-HPTC ways (like entertainment, for example).

My bigger question is, what do you mean by "the enterprise"? This term is used by people in unclear ways. Do you mean in HPC existing industrial markets, such as automotive, aerospace and life sciences; or HPC proximity markets, i.e., technical computing in financial services, movie-making, etc.; or do you mean in non-technical computing business applications, such as HR, payroll, customer relationship management? I'm just seeking terminological clarity. Thanks. I agree that Windows CCS will likely become important in HPC, especially in desktop-up migration scenarios.
