XaaS: Acceleration as a Service to Enable Productive High-Performance Cloud Computing
DescriptionHPC and cloud computing have historically evolved independently, each specializing in performance or productivity. But what if we could combine the best of both worlds? The recently proposed Acceleration as a Service (XaaS) presented a new vision for the future — a unified architecture providing transparent access to high-performance computing resources across any underlying cloud or HPC provider. By bridging advancements from both domains with performance-portable containers, XaaS opens up new research directions: How can XaaS enable the seamless execution of scientific software across many systems and architectures? How much will XaaS have to change containers to achieve performance portability between different HPC systems? What new serverless and flexible resource utilization models could XaaS enable?

Join our panel, where the authors of the XaaS proposal will explore these questions and discuss the potential of cloud technologies to change the HPC landscape.
