OpenPOWER Summit Europe: Day 2 Recap
- 1. OpenPOWER Summit Europe Barcelona | October 28, 2016 A recap of Day Two
- 2. All over Europe, people are talking about OpenPOWER!
- 3. The shotgun release of so many efforts, argue IBM and OpenPOWER, demonstrates the hungry appetite for and rapid adoption of Power-based technology in Europe. John Russell HPCWire
- 4. And how being in an open community helps drive success.
- 5. Open gives everyone a seat at the table, and every seat is a little bit different. MajorHayden Principle Architect Rackspace
- 6. Collaboration grew for building the framework, with significant contributions from IBM, Xilinx, Rackspace, Eiditicom, Reconfigure.io, Alpha-Data, and Nallatech. Each company brought unique skills and perspectives to the effort. BruceWile CAPIChiefEngineer andDistinguished Engineer IBM
- 7. The way open makes a difference in my business is that it speeds up the rate of innovation. At OpenPOWER Summit in April, I got together with several other members, and in six months we came away with CAPI SNAP. RobTaylor CEO Reconfigure.io
- 8. This open collaboration is leading to real performance gains for our members
- 9. When compared to a traditional system, we were able to maintain the same performance using 4x less memory with CAPI attached Flash. TomHubregtsen ResearchStaffMember IBM
- 10. And is helping to create new technologies that previously weren’t possible without OpenPOWER’s collaborative model
- 11. New advanced memory technologies will have a disruptive impact on the industry. This demonstration of MRAM in a POWER8 server running real applications is a great example of what OpenPOWER is all about – creating opportunities for industry partners to innovate and enabling choice in the market. SteveFields IBMFellow andChiefEngineer ofPOWERsystems
- 12. These new technologies are being used by members to address both current workloads, as well as workloads of the future
- 13. Deep learning is not the future, deep learning at scale is the future. SamuelCozannet StrategicProgramManager Canonical
- 14. JURON clearly demonstrates the potential of a technology ecosystem settled around a processor architecture with interfaces that facilitate efficient integration of various devices for efficient processing, moving and storing of data. In other words, it demonstrates the collaborative potential of OpenPOWER. Dr.Dirk Pleiter ResearchGroupLeader Jülich Supercomputing Centre
- 16. We’re doing it differently, and in ways we’ve never done before, and that’s my definition of fun. JeffScheel Distinguished Engineer IBMLinux Technology Center
- 17. That concludes our coverage of the inaugural OpenPOWER Summit Europe. See you at SC16! Be sure to follow the conversation at #OpenPOWER
