A New Killer Application for the Cloud: High Performance Computing (HPC)NeoviseAugust 15, 2009 4 Pages - SKU: NVS2468885 |
| In August 2009, Penguin Computing announced the immediate availability of “Penguin on Demand™” - or POD - a new service that delivers, for the first time, a complete high performance computing (HPC) solution in the cloud. POD extends the concept of cloud computing by making optimized compute resources designed specifically for HPC available on demand. POD is targeted at researchers, scientists and engineers who require surge capacity for time-critical analyses or organizations that need HPC capabilities without the expense and effort required to acquire HPC clusters. This Neovise Perspective Report discusses this event, conveys relevant background and provides additional, detailed perspective. |
