While innovations associated with HDD capacities, SSD performance, latency, bandwidth, and throughput advancements dominate HPC storage-related investments and headlines, tape-based storage solutions remain a critical part of data center storage architectures. Tape continues to be utilized at roughly half of the sites surveyed, with average tape capacity at those sites being approximately 2.5x greater than average disk (both HDD and SSD) capacity across all surveyed sites. This data is from an annual study which is part of the eighth edition 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.

Japan, US Renew Commitment to Economic Order in CHIPS Era
Tom Sorensen, Bob Sorensen
During an inaugural ministerial meeting of the U.S.-Japan Economic Policy Consultative Committee (EPCC) in July, a joint statement was presented detailing a renewed and explicit commitment to regional economic stability, fairness, and hardiness. The statement, which includes an action plan, enumerates four main goals: realizing peace and prosperity through rules-based economic order, countering economic coercion and unfair opaque lending practices, promoting and securing critical and emerging technologies and critical infrastructure, and strengthening supply chain resilience. While renewed and steady efforts to maintain regional welfare are an end within themselves, this joint statement takes on an additional layer of complexity and purpose when considered in light of the recent U.S. CHIPS Act, a semiconductor promotion policy whose U.S.-only tone has the potential to cause regional turbulence and heighten international trade tensions.

Programming Languages Becoming More Ubiquitous: Most HPC Sites Use C/C++ and Python
Melissa Riddle and Jaclyn Ludema
The usage of multiple programming languages is becoming ubiquitous at HPC sites as the number of languages per site continues to rise. C/C++ and Python are particularly popular, with the majority of HPC sites using both languages at least some of the time. This data is from an annual study that is part of the eighth edition of Hyperion Research's HPC end-user-based tracking of the HPC marketplace. It included 181 HPC end-user sites with 3,830 HPC systems.
