This week, Bright featured an article in InsideHPC which highlights how Bright users can achieve real competitive advantage in the cloud using Bright Cluster Manager. As traditional mindsets towards high-performance computing (HPC) increasingly give way to cloud-based approaches, organizations are seizing the advantages of time and reduced capital outlays compared to traditional on-premise approaches. "Cloud continues to be a top priority for companies that are seeking ways to accelerate HPC projects or quickly extend the capacity and capabilities of their on-premise systems" says Bill Wagner, CEO of Bright Computing. According to Intersect360 Research, in 2020, cloud computing experienced 78.8% growth, on top of an underlying double-digit growth rate, as organizations turned to cloud computing to cope with accelerated projects and deferred acquisitions. Leveraging HPC in the cloud has important business applications for companies trying to get into HPC and haven't yet decided, or can't afford, to deploy an HPC cluster. Cloud technology means that companies can now adapt and scale more easily to accelerate innovation, drive business agility, streamline operations, and potentially reduce costs.
Bright Computing is a California-based SaaS firm that provides cluster management solutions for applications such as edge computing and machine learning.
