Catalog and Seagate Technology recently announced a collaboration to advance DNA-based technology towards becoming commercially viable storage and computing solution. Catalog brings their molecule designs for storing data in DNA and performing computation across a library of molecules to the partnership, while Seagate Technology will be contributing its silicon-based lab-on-a[1]chip technology to reduce the volume of chemistry required for DNA-based storage and computation.

Survey respondents cited GPUs as the most anticipated processing element within the next 12-18 months at a rate of 74%. When asked about which processing elements they expect to be incorporated into their HPC/AI/HPDA computing resources, the majority of respondents across all sectors expected GPUs to be first (74.0%) and TPUs (24.3%) as next most anticipated. Government and academia respondents reported the highest expectation at a rate of 84%. 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.
