High-Performance Computing

High-performance computing (HPC) is the aggregation of several individual computers to build an infrastructure with high processing power and speed to solve complex computational problems. A single computer possesses 2 to 4 cores to perform computations. To increase this processing power, more cores are needed, hence in an HPC, we cluster many computers together. Each of these computers is referred to as a node, a cluster of nodes forms an HPC. Businesses may use clusters of 16 to 64 nodes which means up to 256 cores available for processing.

HPC solutions consist of three main components – Computation, Networking, and Storage. The cluster set up will be running several computations simultaneously and storing the output. It is necessary for these two steps can complement each other in terms of speed to ensure a smooth-running HPC infrastructure. Hence, the network connecting the clusters to storage and user must be strong. HPC solutions are popularly deployed in several sectors such as Media, Oil and Gas, Machine
