Lenovo's TruScale High Performance Computing as a service puts HPC within reach of any organisation
The Lenovo Infrastructure Solutions Group (ISG) unveiled Lenovo TruScale High Performance Computing as a Service (HPCaaS), delivering the power of supercomputing to organisations of all sizes through a cloud-like experience.
The new high performance computing (HPC) as-a-service (aaS) offering expands Lenovo’s everything as-a-service TruScale portfolio and enables HPC customers to access greater supercomputing resources.
Cloud-based HPC is the fastest growing segment of high-performance computing, and on-demand resource consumption provides more efficient and scalable computing resources to meet workload requirements, Lenovo said. The company pointed out that the typical HPC cluster runs at nearly full capacity, with rapidly increasing demands for compute and storage cycles and little room for additional workloads.
Lenovo TruScale HPCaaS delivers additional capacity as needed. The technology provides rack-level resources that are critical to drive innovation across multiple sectors, including academia, pharma, manufacturing and healthcare.
“Lenovo’s TruScale HPC as a Service allows for incredible innovation with the flexibility for HPC customers to expand their clusters when needed,” said Scott Tease, VP and GM, HPC at Lenovo.
“We designed this offering to make high performance computing resources easier and faster to deploy, offering researchers the freedom to think bigger and without technology being a barrier to their success.”
TruScale HPC as a Service features a simple, pay-per use, model that is managed and supported by Lenovo. With technology that is installed at the customer's data centre, HPC workload managers can dynamically access and provision resources on-demand. Additional cluster resources can be obtained through “push-button” access, which allows businesses to utilise additional computing, storage and acceleration capabilities as needed.
With Lenovo TruScale HPCaaS, customers can scale their supercomputing requirements as needed:
- Pay for what they consume with no hidden costs
- Easily scale HPC clusters by removing resource limitations
- Run applications at scale without architectural bottlenecks
- Translate capital investments into operational expenses, avoiding long and intensive budget cycles and procurement delays
- Manage budgets and visualise consumption and billing through Lenovo’s TruScale Portal
- Access to specialised hardware.
Lenovo TruScale HPCaaS also offers high levels of control and security. The on-premises HPC capability provides seamless, protected access to data without any changes to job scripts, or potential risks associated with public cloud exposure. Lenovo’s dedicated professionals ensure that data is secure from installation to utilisation and through decommissioning. These capabilities are delivered in a highly cost-effective offering, without any data egress or ingress charges associated with use.
