Is the Cloud the (inevitable) future of HPC?
Urban legends and realities
Chaired by Gilles Tourpe, Business Development Manager HPC, AWS and Xavier Vigouroux, Head of business development, CGG
The HPC Cloud is an essential lever to accelerate CFM's growth and its exponential needs for HPC and AI simulations.
By Wilfried Kirschenmann, CTO, ANEO et Benjamin Roy, CTO, CFM
When business demands for performance and availability are high, the approaches to implement on-premises or in the cloud are radically different. On one hand, infrastructure is scaled for peak loads, isolated, and protected; on the other hand, allocation and redundancy strategies are adapted.
This presentation will introduce how aligning business needs with implemented services can improve flexibility, quality of service, and performance while reducing costs.
