Supercomputing has swept rapidly from the far edges of science to the heart of our everyday lives. And propelling it forward – bringing it into the mobile phone already in your pocket and the car in your driveway – is GPU acceleration, NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang told a packed house at a rollicking event kicking… Read More

Last year around this time, we released the new VCDX Directory and also published guidelines for panelists and mentors. Since then, anyone who was a panelist was not able to also be a mentor to aspiring VCDX candidates. As the program evolves and we move into 2016, we’ve decided to go through and update the […]

SC ’15 , the big, annual High Performance Computing (‘HPC’) conference, officially kicks off in Austin this evening with a gala opening of the conference exhibits. As we did last year , VMware has a demo booth within the EMC booth (#499) on the show floor . When I mentioned this to a customer recently, he cleverly asked whether the VMware booth would be embedded within the EMC booth embedded within the Dell booth at SC’16 in Salt Lake City, like Matryoshka nesting dolls. I don’t know about that, but I do know we have some interesting things to present at this year’s show.   We will be highlighting our High Performance Analytics solution in the booth this year. This solution is an abstracted interface that allows researchers to focus more on their science. This means that much less attention needs to be paid to the underlying IT infrastructure used to run their analyses. We will also be presenting the latest performance information for HPC applications running on our virtual platform, including the latest MPI latency numbers.   We will give two talks in the booth theatre this week. Ranjit Sawant will talk about HPA in a talk titled, “Research Collaboration and Scientific Agility using VMware High Performance Analytics”. [...]

Rural Maharashtra, India, is possibly the last place one would look for high tech, but it’s there that Chitale Dairy’s “cows to cloud” initiative, powered by VMware, is helping farmers improve their stock and increase milk production. Vishwas Chitale, CEO/CTO, Chitale Dairy, said that computers were first introduced to the business in 1984 by his […]

The current Consulting and Integration Partner Program (CIPP) will discontinue effective 4 December, 2015. Existing CIPP partners may transition to the new Partner Professional Services Program (PPSP). Qualified current CIPP partners are required to sign the PPSP click-through agreement that was emailed from VMware no later than 20 November, 2015. Reference this guide to learn […]

We have already entered the era of digital health. However, today it is far from an efficient model. Interconnectivity standards are more proprietary than open, resulting in a fragmented and ineffective model. Currently, Digital Health itself is not healthy. Digital Health is a rapidly evolving agglomeration of applications, interfaces, devices, workflows, along with other related […]

16 November 2015: 2ndQuadrant is proud to announce the release of version 1.5.1 of Barman, Backup and Recovery Manager for PostgreSQL.

This minor release introduces support for 'per-server' concurrency of maintenance operations through the 'cron' command. Internally, Barman is now able to spawn a new sub-process for WAL archive operations on a specific server. For this purpose, the 'archive-wal' command has been added to the command interface.

Minor bugs have also been fixed.

For a complete list of changes, see the "Release Notes" section below.

Solar energy. Semiconductor design. Electric cars. Researchers working to make advances in these fields often need to study the behavior of materials at the atomic level, which demands complex computer simulations. Among the most popular applications for these simulations is VASP – which models the behavior of, and interactions among, hundreds of individual atoms at… Read More
