An interview with Kyril Faenov on High Performance Computing (HPC) / Windows Compute Cluster Server

David Tesar — Thu, 15 Nov 2007 08:01:00 GMT

I chatted with Kyril Faenov, the general program manager of HPC, and asked things like why Microsoft even decided to get into the high performance computing environment, what can be done with the product, and why you might use Microsoft’s HPC solution over the others. My knowledge of HPC was pretty limited, so this is a great one to watch for an interesting intro. HPC for the stock market, video rendering, people already using 10s of thousands of nodes? If you care to listen over the edge, you’ll find elephants from Thailand, and some other interesting pieces from a known Russian artist.
