Abstract:
Big Compute and Big Data are combining in the cloud, enabling new technical computing use-cases. The availability of web-scale, low cost storage and data analytics, coupled with pay-by-the-hour access to many thousands of CPU cores on-demand, has led to faster, higher quality product engineering and more rapid research and scientific discovery.
This session covers the emerging area of data-intensive, cloud-based HPC, with topics that include cloud-based cluster and job management, automated deployment methods for HPC and data management, and the use of cloud for remote simulation, visualization, and secure design collaboration. Real-world public and private sector examples will be covered, along with best practices for data security, performance, and cost optimization.
