Supercomputers: new trend that should change the computing of the future

2023-06-13 19:34:15

Having a high-performance computer with instant processing, great network speed, unlimited memory and storage, without the cost of powerful machines and hardware maintenance, may seem like just a dream for some. But these supercomputers, as they are known, are already a reality through cloud computing. It is internationally called VDI and translated as Virtualized Desktop Infrastructure. It is one of the applications of cloud technology and one of the promising trends in the field of computing.

These supercomputers can already be found in research centers, scientific laboratories and companies that need intensive computational power to run heavy applications. However, according to specialists, the trend is that its popularization should be accelerated due to the exponential increase in the adhesion of companies and professionals that already use cloud infrastructure. According to a recent survey by the Canalys released by forbes magazineworldwide spending on cloud services increased 34% to $55.9 billion in the first quarter of 2022. 2021.

“With the advancement of cloud computing, it is possible to extend the processing capacity and virtualize applications beyond the physical limits of traditional computers, generating a significant increase in productivity, especially in businesses that depend on systems that constantly crash due to the low quality of the machines or from Internet. Supercomputers use the network and cloud storage, with impressive speed, impacting the speed of everything that is done on the web, whether using or updating software or rendering, downloading and uploading files”, details Patrick Machado, CEO of DataEnv, a cloud computing infrastructure company that launched Nomad this year, one of the first virtualized desktops on the national market.

Cloud virtualized desktop ensures supercomputers

Through these cloud supercomputers, it is possible to provide remote access to a high-performance computing environment from any device connected to the Internet. “The solution makes it possible to provide virtual desktops for users, through servers that deliver the applications and the work environment. Programs and applications run on the server and the user accesses these applications from a VDI client, which can be a thin client, mini PC or a laptop”, explains the expert.

According to Patrick Machado, this trend has the potential to revolutionize the way people use computers. “Instead of depending on expensive and powerful machines, users can simply access a desktop virtualized in the cloud, which uses shared processing resources on remote servers. The savings with the purchase of machines will be expressive”, he adds.

Another advantage of supercomputers is that stored data is automatically backed up, ensuring that information is not lost in a possible machine breakdown. “The digital transformation of companies comes with force to the use of computers, giving managers the possibility to demobilize their investment in equipment and use the money in another area, in addition to reducing losses due to loss of data due to theft or problems with the HD”, sums up the CEO of Data Env.
