With the new year upon us, this is a good time to review what we learned at conferences held toward the end of last year. In this episode, sponsored by Lenovo, Adrian Cockcroft joins Shahin and Doug to discuss SC24, the RISC-V Summit and AWS Reinvent.
Adrian, who has appeared on this podcast previously and also contributed to insideHPC an article on CXL and related trends after SC22 that drew strong interest, is a partner and analyst at the OrionX.net technology consultancy and a former vice president at AWS, among other career highlights.
We review many of the major tech topics of the day, including: HPC and AI clouds, CXL, liquid cooling, optical interconnects, optical computing, novel CPUs and GPUs, the state of RISC-V in servers and supercomputers, the TOP500, chiplets, and AWS CPU and GPU strategies. We recorded this episode just before the always-good Q2B conference on quantum technologies, which is mentioned here and will be covered in a future episode.
