Bringing 330 Petaflops Of Supercomputing To Bear On The Outbreak

IBM, Amazon, Microsoft, and Google are teaming with the White House, the US Department of Energy, and other federal agencies to bring a massive amount of supercomputing power and public cloud resources to scientists, engineers and researchers who are working to address the novel coronavirus global pandemic that is expected to bear down hard on the United States in the coming weeks.

Bulking Up The File System for A World Of Clouds And Edges

The challenge of managing data is growing faster than the data itself is piling up, and that is bad except for the companies that can create new tools to manage it, either to use internally as the hyperscalers do or to sell to those who cannot fund such development and count on vendors to do it.

The Softer Side Of Exascale

When talking about high-end HPC systems in the world, much of the attention often is paid to the massive supercomputers that are being developed by the likes of system makers Cray (now part of Hewlett Packard Enterprise and the main contractor on two exascale systems), Fujitsu, Atos, IBM, and others along with component makers Intel (which is a primary contractor on one exascale system), AMD, and Nvidia.

The Debate Over Regulating AI Ramps Up

Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google and parent company Alphabet, generated a lot of buzz recently with an op-ed he wrote for the The Financial Times calling for greater regulation of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, adding a high-profile voice into a debate that has been simmering as innovation around AI, machine learning and deep learning have advanced rapidly.

Nvidia Moves Clara Healthcare AI To The Edge

Nvidia has for years made artificial intelligence (AI) and its various subsets – such as machine learning and deep learning – a foundation of future growth and sees it as a competitive advantage against rival Intel and a growing crop of smaller chip maker and newcomers looking to gain traction in a rapidly evolving IT environment.
