FAQs
When formulating an HPC & AI strategy, organisations need to take into account elements like their business objectives and obstacles, current infrastructure and data environment, skilled workforce skills and knowledge, and financial constraints. Aligning the HPC & AI strategy with the overall goals is crucial, and it is important to verify the availability or acquisition of required resources like infrastructure, data, and skilled personnel within the set budget.
Integrating HPC and AI technologies encounters various complex challenges.
Financial: Significant initial investments are needed for high-performance hardware such as GPUs and accelerators that are essential for the infrastructure.
Technical: This includes managing complex data, integrating large datasets, maintaining data quality and compatibility between sources, and addressing security and privacy issues for sensitive data.
Staff shortage:Lack of experts with specific abilities to create, implement, and support combined HPC-AI systems.
Additional challenges include issues with scalability and performance, energy efficiency requirements, the need for proper cooling, ensuring software compatibility across various AI and HPC frameworks and establishing strong governance and ethical guidelines.
A competitive advantage can be gained including:
- speeding up R&D and product creation.
- streamlining operations and logistics.
- customising customer interactions and offerings.
- analysing complex data for improved decision-making.
Finally, by leveraging the collaboration between HPC and AI, businesses can stimulate innovation, improve operational efficiency, and ultimately achieve a competitive advantage in their industries.
The key to success lies in aligning the strategy with your business objectives. Establish KPIs that mirror the company’s objectives, such as higher efficiency and productivity, enhanced decision-making , cost reduction and improved customer satisfaction. Keep track of these important KPIs before and after you integrate your HPC and AI strategy to assess its effectiveness.
