HPE at ISC21: Shining the spotlight on supercomputing from exascale to as-a-service

[Brandon_Draeger]

Here’s your guide to everything HPE and HPC at ISC21. Plan your agenda to get the most from our virtual booth and ISC-sponsored sessions, learn where to get updates from our HPE partners, and discover additional HPC content on HPE.com and across the web.

The HPE team is excited about ISC 2021! To help you prepare for this virtual event, here’s a preview of our speakers, top topics, and agenda. We hope to see you there.

Meet HPC leaders

Take this opportunity to hear from Justin Hotard, HPE’s new Senior VP and General Manager for the HPC and MSC business segment. He’ll be covering how insight powers innovation from edge to exascale. Here Justin offers a warm welcome to ISC21 with a quick look at the HPE HPC portfolio we’ll be sharing at the event.

Also on hand: Bill Mannel, VP and General Manager for HPC, Pankaj Goyal, VP for AI/HPC & Accelerated Computing, and Nick Dube, Fellow and Chief Technologist for HPC, plus other HPC thought leaders who will participating in numerous panel discussions and interviews. In addition, we’re hosting additional webcasts, podcasts, and other digital content rich in content from HPE Software, HPE Labs, and HPE partners.

Learn more about HPE and HPC

In a world where adaptation is happening in real time, we know you need insight and innovation on demand. For ISC 2021, we’re talking about how HPE is leading in this next era of computing by:

• Delivering HPC as a service through HPE GreenLake combining the power and compliance of on-premises systems, with cloud-like financial flexibility, ease of management, and consumption-based pricing.
• Building on the impact of exascale where workloads and data flow fluidly across system architectures and organizations
• Redefining data privacy, healthcare research, and solutions with swarm learning
• Exploring the synergy between HPC and AI and how shared infrastructure will definitely be a critical component for unifying these discipline
