Customers around the world rely on Microsoft Azure to drive innovations related to our environment, public health, energy sustainability, weather modeling, economic growth, manufacturing and more. Finding solutions to these important challenges requires huge amounts of focused computing power. Customers are increasingly finding the best way to access such high-performance computing (HPC) is through the agility, scale, security, and leading edge performance of Azure’s purpose-built HPC and AI cloud services.


 


Azure’s market-leading vision for HPC and AI is based on a core of genuine and recognized HPC expertise, using proven HPC technology and design principles, enhanced with the best features of the cloud. The result is a capability that delivers performance, scale, and value unlike any other cloud. This means applications scaling 12 times higher than other public clouds. It means higher application performance per node. It means powering AI workloads for one customer with a supercomputer fit to be among the top five in the world. And it means delivering massive compute power into the hands of medical researchers over a weekend to prove out life-saving innovations in the fight against COVID-19.


 


This year during Ansys Simulation World 2021, we’re spotlighting some of the most transformational applications that highlight our commitment to IOT, AI, HPC and cloud computing. Learn more about the event and register here.


 


Presentations by Microsoft experts range from how to drive more productivity from simulations by leveraging the power of GPU’s on Azure to optimal setups for running complex IC simulations in the cloud to novel methods of developing advanced control algorithms using machine learning and simulations together. Overall, the conference represents many industries coming together to discuss simulation and digital transformation, and as the Diamond Sponsor, Microsoft is right in the middle of this movement.
