The HPC ecosystem continues to evolve, providing endless avenues to explore and research. Items contributing to these market research opportunities include the rapid introduction and adoption of large language models (LLMs) and other AI-related innovations, increased adoption of HPC resources in the cloud, and heightened emphasis and awareness of sustainability and energy efficiency, to name just a few. The team of analysts at Hyperion Research strive to provide thoughtful, insightful, critical analysis across these topics, as well as the HPC market’s many other dimensions. These dimensions include, but are not limited to, market data, technology, innovations, exascale deployments, and vertical application use cases. 2023 proved to be quite eventful, and 2024 is expected to be just as significant.

49% of HPC Sites Indicate That AI Expertise Is the Number One Barrier to Increased AI Adoption and Usage
Tom Sorensen and Earl Joseph
Expertise is now a major concern for both HPC and AI centers, outranked only by budget concerns. When asked about barriers to furthering AI capabilities, AI-specific expertise was a significant concern. Popular responses included access to AI expertise (49%), skills in AI model development (47%), and skills in AI programming (36%). This development comes at a time when a third of HPC sites (33%) report a lack of knowledge or skilled staff and identified this issue among their top three barriers to expanding on-premises HPC. This data is from the eighth annual study of Hyperion Research's high-performance computing (HPC) end-user-based tracking of the HPC marketplace. It included 181 HPC end-user sites with 3,830 HPC systems.
