One of the obstacles for large on-premise clusters are the requirements for high-end data centers in addition to the challenge of ever-increasing energy costs. Large cloud providers have increased their focus on HPC and added more specialized HPC services to their offerings. They leverage the success of their cloud computing ecosystem and are perceived by some to have the most agile and flexible solution available; allowing you to pay on a per-use basis and to adjust your capacity on the fly to meet your needs. But is this really a cost effective long-term strategy for running AI workloads or simulations that can benefit from capacity at scale?

Google has announced plans to acquire Californian-based software firm CloudSimple for an undisclosed fee, as it steps up efforts to win the business of hybrid-cloud hungry enterprises.

CloudSimple’s solutions help companies with cloud migration, disaster recovery and virtual desktop services. The purchase will help Google as it seeks to make ground on cloud rivals, Microsoft Azure and AWS, by simplifying migration to Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
