HPC and Cloud Convergence: Drivers, Triggers, and Constraints
DescriptionThis BoF delves into the evolving landscape of converged computing, where high-performance computing (HPC) and cloud resources are being integrated to meet the complex demands of modern scientific and technical computing. The increasing role of AI/ML is accelerating the need for convergence, but additional constraints such as sovereignty, the skill set of staff, and data center capacity limitations require consideration. In this BoF we will look at different personas: supercomputing centers, cloud providers, research computing, and industrial users. We aim to provide an overview of converged computing and to identify key concerns and opportunities in this rapidly changing field.
