DescriptionExascale initiatives around the world will enable
50-100 times faster performance of HPC workloads than on
today’s highest performing supercomputers. This
breakthrough will open the flood gates to get answers to
complex questions in the field of drug discovery,
personalized health care, weather forecasting,
clean-energy and other scientific and commercial
segments by modeling and simulating problems in
innovative ways with faster time to solution. Cavium has
been leading the industry in ARM servers for the HPC
market since the launch of the first generation of
ThunderX. This talk will address how Cavium is providing
differentiated design point for HPC Applications with
its latest ThunderX2 ARMv8 processor and how it plans to
tackle the exascale challenge to deliver breakthrough
performance to solve the world’s most demanding compute
requirements leveraging processor portfolio and
compelling roadmap that include system innovations such
as Gen Z.
