A supercomputer, providing massive amounts of computing power to tackle complex challenges, is typically out of reach for the average enterprise data scientist. However, what if you could use cloud resources instead? That’s the rationale that Microsoft Azure and Nvidia are taking with this week’s announcement designed to coincide with the SC22 supercomputing conference.

Nvidia and Microsoft announced that they are building a “massive cloud AI computer.” The supercomputer in question, however, is not an individually-named system, like the Frontier system at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory or the Perlmutter system, which is the world’s fastest Artificial Intelligence (AI) supercomputer. Rather, the new AI supercomputer is a set of capabilities and services within Azure, powered by Nvidia technologies, for high performance computing (HPC) uses.
