High Performance Computing Market Driven by Investment

There are a number of factors pushing the demand for high performance computing to greater heights. Advancements in cloud computing, convergence of big data, development of new technologies and solutions for embedded processors, hot water cooling, and non-volatile memory are meeting the demands of this growing market. High profile companies and governments compete with massive budgets and massive needs. Focusing on the market in general, an article posted to lowcarboneconomy.com notes that:


Some of the prominent players in the high performance computing market include IBM, HP, Intel, Microsoft, Cisco, AMD, Bull, Dell (News - Alert), and Oracle among the others. Companies operating in the high performance computing market are developing solutions to maintain accuracy, stability, and fast convergence to correct solution which would help them to attain sustained growth in the market.

The government is known for its largesse, and it has a propensity for taking on high expense initiatives, especially in technology. With the right approach and efficiencies in place, these technology programs might ultimately find their way to benefiting the American people. Whether the ultimate value of these technologies is the expansion of government or a more efficient government, the demand is undeniable.

The commercial aspects of the demand for high performance computing are much clearer and obvious to the casual observer. The conversations surrounding the commercial aspects of cloud commonly include identifiable business advantages along the lines of cost, mobilization, speed, business intelligence, and more.  Yet, in both of these environments, the dichotomy of public elements and business industry forces that are driving up the demands for high performance is evident. Competitiveness is a universal constant in any environment and the relationship between public government needs and private industry is not exempt from having to deliver on the proposition of value and capabilities. By all identifiable measures, the demand for high performance computing will continue to grow thanks to the forces that continue to find new ways to utilize computing.
