Dana Chang, Vice President and Co-founder at Atipa Technologies, joins Conversations in the Cloud to discuss Atipa\u2019s Polaris High Performance Computing and Visualization (HPCV) platform. \n\nAtipa has over 18 years of experience in HPC. The company researches, builds and configures HPC clusters, servers and workstations. Atipa\u2019s development of the Polaris HPCV platform won them Intel's 2018 Partner of the Year Award for HPC Technical Solutions.\n\nToday\u2019s scientists need faster insights and visualize increasingly large data sets. Atipa\u2019s Polaris Select HPCV clusters are optimized for high-performance computation and visualization to meet these growing demands. The Atipa Polaris HPCV Platform uses 2nd Generation Intel\xae Xeon\xae Scalable processors and the Intel\xae Rendering Framework for CPU-based rendering. This enables a balanced performance for simulation and modeling or simulation and visualization. The pre-validated hardware of Intel\xae Select Solutions saves time that would have been spent assessing and procuring configurations.\n\nAtipa and Intel collaborated this year to deploy a Polaris HPCV platform at Northern Illinois University. The deployed HPCV platform allows students to quickly model and solve complex data. In addition, students get to train with tools used at the most advanced industry settings. Dana discusses the importance of student access to HPC technology at all ages, from K-12 to college.\n\nThe future will likely see HPC clusters moving from off-site to on-premise, especially for researchers. Dana and Jake both dream of having \u2018a cluster in a box\u2019 or data server designed for the office.\n\nLearn more about the Polaris HPCV platform by visiting https://www.atipa.com/intel-select-solutions.
