The Top of All Things in HPC, 2017 Site Census Snapshot Analysis — April 2018

April 5, 2018|Addison Snell, Christopher G. Willard Ph.D., Laura Segervall

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The purpose of this presentation is to identify the top suppliers, packages, or categories within specific HPC market segments, according to survey data.
Shares reported are based on Site Census survey results. This is not the same as revenue shares, which Intersect360 Research models separately; however,
in most cases, it is an important indicator. “Top” is defined as companies accounting for 50% market share or the top five. Full details will be issued
in written HPC User Site Census reports.

HPE became the largest HPC vendor reported in our Site Census surveys, accounting for roughly 21% of all mentions. Much of this increase in mentions
is due to the acquisition of SGI systems.
NVIDIA continues to dominate the accelerator market in system installations. However, NVIDIA’s lead in total processors installed shrank to less than
50% due to installation of several large Intel Phi-based systems.
Mellanox gained share of mentions in every networking locale, with storage showing the largest gain.
Middleware profile remained consistent with the prior year with programming environment, job management, and compilers being the top three subcategories.
Top ten generally-available application packages continue to primarily be in traditional segments: chemistry, fluid dynamics, and structural analysis.

Purchase Reports

Single User Access

Single-User Access ($490): Report is for the sole use of one person, such as for forecasting or product planning. Redistribution or sharing of the reports is prohibited, even internally within the purchasing organization or department. Citation of quotes or data, such as on a web site, in a press release, or for enterprise use, requires approval from Intersect360 Research.

Enterprise Usage

Enterprise-Wide Usage ($2,400): Report can be shared within the purchasing organization—for example, across product, strategy, sales, or forecasting teams. This does not extend to partner organizations, such as suppliers or resellers, but does include contractors working for the purchasing organization. Public citation of quotes or data, such as on a web site or in a press release, requires approval from Intersect360 Research. Advisory service clients are granted enterprise-wide usage rights for all reports in the subscribed service (HPC Advisory Service or Hyperscale Advisory Service), but not reprint rights unless purchased separately.

Reprints

Reprints ($4,800 per report): Full redistribution rights for some or all of a report, such as for PR purposes, including email, print, web, or other distribution. The reports may not be edited in any way except as approved by Intersect360 Research (such as to excerpt a section or to highlight particular text). An organization must have enterprise usage of a report—either through individual report purchase or advisory service access—to purchase reprints. Contact Intersect360 Research to purchase.
