Five Reasons You Need a Data Platform to Solve Your Complex HPC Storage Problems
High-Performance Computing (HPC) relies on a critical “infrastructure triangle” consisting of network, compute, and storage to supply and process essential data for addressing the world’s most complex problems. Yet, over time, networks and compute have experienced exponential performance improvement with 2x-5x CPU/GPU density, up to 8x network capacity, and 3x increases in memory. However, storage has lagged, only making limited iterative improvements, and so the storage environments, requiring constant care and performance tuning, have become a nightmare to manage at scale.
