High-Performance Computing (HPC)
High-Performance Computing (HPC) in Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) providers refers to the use of powerful cloud-based computing resources to process complex calculations and large-scale workloads efficiently. HPC in IaaS environments enables organizations to run simulations, data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and scientific modeling without the need for on-premises supercomputers. It leverages clusters of virtual machines (VMs), GPUs, and specialized hardware to deliver high computational power with low latency. Cloud-based HPC solutions offer scalability, allowing users to allocate resources as needed while optimizing costs. By integrating parallel processing and distributed computing, IaaS providers ensure performance-intensive applications run seamlessly in the cloud.
