Hyperconvergence Promises HPC Democratization

摘要

IN THE RACE TO INDUSTRY 4.0, more compute power is never enough. Improvements to engineering IT always pay back with more simulations, smoother design workflows, better visualizations and faster time to market. New productivity gains are coming from a melding of resources that, until now, operated separately. IT vendors call this new movement hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI). The goal is to centralize and democratize multiple IT components into one system that runs on standard, off-the-shelf servers.
