In his Third Law of Motion, Isaac Newton noted that “for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” While the physics are quite different, you could say much the same today to characterize the relationship between the growing use of high performance computing and artificial intelligence and the growing use of cloud computing for HPC and AI workloads.
In simple terms, when organizations turn to HPC and AI to capitalize on huge datasets, IT leaders have to make choices about where to run those workloads. In years past, the default choice would have been on-premises infrastructure. But today, IT leaders are increasingly seeing the advantages of running HPC and AI workloads in public and private clouds.
