Microsoft Migrates From Servers to Supercomputers

[Guest abhi]

Once relegated to the realm of national laboratories, supercomputers

have started to move downstream. These days, any business with $25,000

to $100,000 to spare can buy a computing system capable of cranking

through very difficult tasks. And, in fact, more businesses than ever

have started to buy exactly these types of systems as competitive

pressure mounts to perform complex operations faster.

 

With this in mind, Microsoft’s interest in what’s known as high-

performance computing (HPC) makes a lot of sense. The world’s largest

software maker this week released a new, specialized version of its

Windows operating system built to distribute tasks across large groups

of computers.
