As a part of that process, we also realized that there were a number of latency sensitive or location specific use cases like Hadoop, HPC, and testing that would be ideal for Spot. However, customers with these use cases need a way to more easily and reliably target Availability Zones.

This post started out as a reaction to attending SC22 after about 20 years away from the HPC mainstream. Custom HPC optimized CPUs and GPUs will become the mainstream in the next few years, with chiplets based on the ARM and RISC-V pattern libraries and tooling, with competition between cloud providers, startups and the large systems vendors.

High performance computing (HPC) clusters are able to solve big problems using a large number of processors. For HPC clusters, it is important that they are scalable, in other words that the capacity of the whole system can be proportionally increased by adding more hardware. Measuring parallel scaling performance.

From financial processing and traditional oil & gas exploration HPC applications to integrating complex 3D graphics into online and mobile applications, the applications of GPU processing appear to be limitless. An 8 TeraFLOPS HPC cluster of GPU-enabled nodes will now only cost you about $17 per hour.

While throughput performance is important, especially in data-centers, single threaded performance remains a pivotal metric for a large swath of application domains (HPC, Finance etc.). Instead, the focus has been on boosting aggregate performance by increasing core count.
