Forecasts of ARM-based On-premise HPC Servers

Storage and interconnects continue to be important elements of HPC system architecture and are expected to take on even greater significance with increasing demanding and diverse requirements driven by both traditional compute-intensive HPC mod/sim workloads and data-intensive AI workloads. The significance is reflected in recent market data and near-term forecasts, technology adoption and utilization trends, industry announcements in the second half of 2021, and future storage and related technology research direction of Hyperion Research.

With over 11,000 on-site attendees approaching pre-pandemic levels, and only 700 virtual participants, SC22 in Dallas, TX far exceeded the high expectations of the broad HPC community. There was no shortage of avenues for participants to obtain the latest knowledge relative to market developments and technology innovations occurring across the industry. The Hyperion Research team of analysts has compiled its primary takeaways and perspectives from the event.
