Introduction: Logistics • Ask Mary if you need a receipt • We have a very tight agenda (as usual) • Please help us keep on time! • Review handouts • Note: We will post most of the presentations on the web site • Please complete the evaluation form
New HPC Innovation Award Program:www.hpcuserforum.com/innovationaward/
New HPC Innovation Award Program:www.hpcuserforum.com/innovationaward/ • First awards will be given at ISC:
Top Trends in HPC The global economy in HPC is growing again • 2010 grew by 10%, to reach $9.5 billion • We are forecasting 7% to 9% growth in 2011 Major challenges for datacenters • Power, cooling, real estate, system management • Storage and data management continue to grow in importance Software hurdles will rise to the top for most users • SSDs will gain momentum and could redefine storage • GPUs are seeing real tractions in certain verticals • The worldwide Race on Petascale is in full speed
Conclusions • 2010 was a year of return to healthy growth in the worldwide HPC market • IDC predicts the HPC market will continue growth in 2011 and grow by 7% to 9% in 2011 • And then will rebuild to exceed $12 billion by 2014 • The recovery will benefit HPC segments unevenly: • With hard-hit verticals such as automotive recovering more slowly than oil and gas, or government and academia • The Supercomputer segment growth will remain turbo-charged by government spending aimed at HPC leadership and “petaflop club” membership
