In this sponsored post, Ken Grohe, President and Chief Revenue Officer for WekaIO, discusses the newest title in the C-Suite, the CDO: Chief Data Officer. As of 2018, almost 68 percent of Fortune 1000 companies have a CDO, yet according to Gartner, “The Chief Data Officer role is still new, untested, and amorphous.” More organizations will recognize that a savvy CDO delivers a return on investment, and as enterprise data stores grow, so do the returns.
The Hyperion-insideHPC Interviews: Suzy Tichenor on the Need for Industrial HPC Users to Get on the GPU Bandwagon
Suzy Tichenor is a long-time champion of helping companies gain access to the country’s most powerful computers. At the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory – site of Summit, no. 2 in the world, according to the latest Top500 supercomputing ranking – she is director of an industrial partnership program dedicated to that mission.

The Hyperion-insideHPC Interviews: Rich Brueckner and Mike Bernhardt Talk Exascale and HPC Marketing: How the HPC Community Tells its Story to the World
After more than three decades in supercomputing as a strategic marketing and communications executive, Mike Bernhardt has seen the HPC community evolve through the many phases of its existence. A “Perennial” (see below) at the annual SC industry conference, Bernhardt remains fascinated by the connection between leading-edge computation and scientific discovery. “In many ways, it’s […]
Modernizing and Future-Proofing Your Storage Infrastructure
In this insideHPC Special Research Report sponsored by Seagate, “Modernizing and Future-Proofing Your Storage Infrastructure,” we take a look at the importance of modernizing your HPC storage infrastructure.
Full-spectrum HPC Scheduling
Our friends over at Altair explain how a meta-scheduler, or hierarchical scheduler, can be thought of as a private or team-based scheduler that uses shared underlying resources. Difficult workloads and special workloads are good candidates for meta-scheduling. Examples include sets of several hundred thousand short jobs, jobs with complex dependencies, and workflows that are continually introspected for status.
Are You Ready for the Exascale Era? Find Out at SC19
As we head into the biggest supercomputing event of the year, all eyes are on exascale. The frontrunners in the race to exascale, including our friends over at Altair, will convene at SC19 in Denver this November to share updates, address challenges, and help paint the picture of an exascale-fueled future for HPC.
A Liquid Cooling Petascale Supercomputing Site and GROMACS Workload Optimization Benchmark
Accelerated computing have been viewed as revolutionary breakthrough technologies for AI and HPC workloads. Significant accelerated computing power from GPUs paired with CPUs is the major contributor. Our friends over at Quanta Cloud Technology (QCT) provide QuantaGrid D52G-4U 8 NVLink GPUs servers with a liquid cooling platform successfully adopted by the National Center of High-performance Computing (NCHC) in Taiwan) for their Taiwania-II project. Rank 23rd on the Top500 as of June 2019.
