Today TMGcore announced it is teaming with the datacenter architects at Corgan to reenvision datacenter facilities that are a tenth of the size of data centers today. The groundbreaking technology from TMGcore combined with Corgan’s design and expertise is set to change the way data centers are designed and operated. “We are scaling down the size of the traditional data center without decreasing the processing power, and we’ve partnered with Corgan to offer clients a solution that can be significantly smaller for the same or greater compute capacity and still have the room within to scale up as the needs increase.”

Video: AI is Impacting HPC Everywhere
September 30, 2019 by
Rob Farber gave this talk at the Perth HPC Conference. “Just as technology changes in the personal computer market brought about a revolution in the design and implementation of the systems and algorithms used in HPC, so are recent technology changes in machine learning bringing about an AI revolution in the HPC community. Expect new HPC analytic techniques including the use of GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) in physics-based modeling and simulation, as well as reduced precision math libraries such as NLAFET and HiCMA to revolutionize many fields of research.”
HPC in the Cloud Offers Flexible, Scalable Solutions for Enterprises and Research Institutions
September 30, 2019 by
In this guest article, our friends at Intel discuss how HPC as a Service (HPCaaS) reduces barriers to HPC and offers a cost-effective extension to on-premise solutions. High performance data analytics (HPDA), simulation and modeling, and artificial intelligence (AI) enable significant benefits like quicker business insights, the ability to design and bring products to market faster, or real-time monitoring of financial transactions for fraud.
