Information
The rise of AI is fundamentally reshaping High-Performance Computing. HPC organizations worldwide
are actively embracing this shift, bearing a significant responsibility. As leaders in innovation,
performance, and large-scale computing, they are uniquely positioned to demonstrate how AI can be
effectively adopted and brought to full production, guiding the broader technological landscape.
A primary challenge in constructing AI Factories is moving beyond legacy conventions, remove
barriers imposed by old paradigms and embrace a new, data-centric, services-oriented paradigm, to
enable the seamless convergence of AI and next-generation HPC, creating an environment where
innovation, technology, and teams can all thrive together.
In this session, we will explore an innovative architecture designed to bridge the gaps left by legacy
systems. We examine how building the infrastructure of the future enables continuous innovation and simultaneously plays a crucial role in attracting and retaining skilled talent.
