HPC: Now Available To Any Business

Until recently, the power of true high-performance computing was out of reach for most businesses, institutions and organisations – either because of the cost or complexity of the systems, or the lack of skills to effectively manage HPC systems. HPC pioneers CrunchYard and SUSE are about to change all that.

These days, research begins at the computer – which also means your research is only as good as your computer. Models of the real world are created, the numbers are crunched to arrive at a number of possible solutions. These solutions are then built and tested in labs, from which the most effective solution is then rolled out. From antennae design to oil exploration, materials design to fluid dynamics, financial modelling to graphics rendering – to remain economically competitive teams are under greater pressure than ever to achieve more results with less resources.

High Performance Computing, or HPC, enables any kind of computation or processing to be done faster. The main problems are that HPC has traditionally been prohibitively expensive, with only the largest companies capable of affording the hardware – as well as the skill sets required to keep top of the line HPC systems running efficiently. Traditionally, HPC was confined to large data centres or specialist server rooms manned by skilled individuals who focus exclusively on HPC.

An example simulation. On average CrunchYard reduces working times from months to hours.

Now a new solution from HPC pioneer CrunchYard is upending that situation – making true HPC solutions affordable and easy to implement for organisations of all sizes and for all kinds of uses.

Office HPC brings the power of supercomputers to any office environment. It is preconfigured with the software of your choice (with licensing optimised for cost efficiency) – and set up to work with existing workflows. It is water cooled and quiet running and does not require a server rack or special room.

Available in three sizes (small, medium and large) – Office HPC is modular so that it is easy to scale. It is far more cost efficient than running engineering simulations on the cloud, but has the capacity to burst to cloud during peak use times. It is an ideal solution for multiple user engineering teams that want to harness real power on their research and design problems.

CrunchYard has decades of experience in creating, implementing and managing optimised and efficient HPC solutions for companies in a wide range of industries. It took all these learnings into consideration when creating the powerful new Office HPC solution.

Office HPC is built on SUSE Linux Enterprise, the scalable, adaptable, and trusted high-performance computing operating system that powers the world’s largest supercomputers.  SUSE Linux Enterprise HPC is a natural choice with a fully-supported set of popular utilities and libraries, broad hardware and cloud platform support for maximum flexibility, and a rich partner ecosystem of certified applications to support customer workloads.

Dozens of companies, universities and organisations in the United States, the UK, Latin America, Europe, Asia and Africa are already using CrunchYard to give them the edge. Now Office HPC enables them, and dozens more, to deploy the power of true high-performance computing into any office environment.
