High-performance computing (HPC) allows users to solve complex science, engineering and business problems using applications that require a large amount of computational resources,as well as high throughput and predictable latency networking. Most systems providing HPC platforms are shared among many users and constitute a significant capital investment to build, tune and maintain. Amazon Web Services (AWS), using Intel® Xeon® processors, enables you to allocate compute capacity on demand without up-front planning of data center, network and server infrastructure.
