Boosting Google Cloud HPC Performance With Optimized Intel MPI
Google News, Tuesday, August 13th, 2024
High performance computing (HPC) is central to fueling innovation across industries. Through simulation, HPC accelerates product design cycles, increases product safety, delivers timely weather predictions, enables training of AI foundation models, and unlocks scientific discoveries across disciplines to name but a few examples.
HPC tackles these computationally demanding problems by employing large numbers of computing elements, servers, or virtual machines, in tight orchestration with one another and communicating via the Message Passing Interface (MPI). In this blog, we show how we boosted HPC performance on Google Cloud using Intel MPI Library.
Google Cloud offers a wide range of VM families that cater to demanding workloads, including H3 compute optimized VMs, which are ideal for HPC workloads.
