Amid new geopolitical challenges, humanity’s need for sustainability is greater than ever — but it will only be achieved by harnessing the power of HPC, which is essential for progressing our society.
To make the accelerated hybrid computing, any way you want to run strategy a reality, Atos has officially launched the next-gen hybrid supercomputer, the BullSequana XH3000. We will share remarkable use cases with leading scientific communities and HPC centers as we continue our Exascale journey — empowering faster, smarter HPC anywhere and at any scale, with a reduced carbon footprint.
