After a long absence, Fujitsu is re-entering the HPC market in the UK with a £15m win at HPC Wales.
“Our work with HPC Wales will be one of the most significant enterprise-class grid systems in Europe today and will be Fujitsu’s largest HPC project in Europe,” said Roger Gilbert, CEO Fujitsu UK & Ireland. “What’s key for us is that HPC is no longer all about tera- and petaflop ratings alone, rather it is about what the HPC capability is used to achieve and ultimately what impact it has more directly to society and business. We’re confident that our work with HPC Wales will bring significant technology, skills, research, jobs and economic development to the region.”
