Agenda


Next Era of IT…Continued Technology Innovation and Business Pressures


Architectural Complexity

Massive data storesHigh speed streaming data

New computing architecturesMulti-core, Hybrid CPU/GPU, clusters, grids, cloud

Productivity

Pressure to produce differentiating applications with high quality, on budget

Data Complexity

The Next Generation of HPC:High Performance Computing and High Productivity Computing Mingle


“Traditional” HPC “Traditional” Development

Bring tools and components that increase developer productivity to high performance/technical computing community.

Bring the ability to leverage massive amounts of data and parallel architectures to “mainstream” IT.

A New Era of Computing, Requires Advanced Development Workbench

• Developers will need tools and components that:– Reduce complexity & increase

productivity– Are cross-platform– Support multiple computing languages– Support Big Data – Include rapid development/prototyping

tools

• Platform vendors are filling the gap, but an independent vendor must step in
