HPC System Market Share
HPC Storage Revenue Share Model
Differences
HPC Hyperscale
• Primary focus is performance • Primary focus is scalability
• Large jobs • Many jobs
• Is still “HPC” on only a few nodes • At lower levels it is just enterprise
– there is entry-level HPC computing – no entry-level
• Largest supercomputers are • Largest hyperscale installations
>$100 million are >$1 billion
Hyperscale Market Size and Tiers
• Intersect360 Research has a tiered model for
the hyperscale market, as follows:
2016 estimates
Intersect360 Research, 2017
AI / Deep Learning
• In 2016, Intersect360 Research placed AI in the
hyperscale market
– Similar to but distinct from HPC
– Low precision, intensely parallel, strong affinity to
public cloud
• DL is not a vertical market. It is an algorithmic or
computational approach
• We are monitoring spending patterns
– Are budgets increasing?
– What is the effect on configurations?
– On premise versus cloud
Sizing Deep Learning
• We have looked at the size of the deep learning
market opportunity from several angles:
– Supplier-side information on market expansion
– Demand-side market analysis on acquisitions
– Top-down analysis of the hyperscale market
– Analyst opinion
• Our independent methods have produced
consistent views of the current opportunity in
deep learning
Deep Learning Size and Growth
• According to our analysis, the deep learning
market opportunity is $2.0B to $2.5B for 2016
– Represents about 6.5% of the hyperscale market
– Data presented one-on-one to clients of Hyperscale
advisory service
• We expect growth rate to be very high for the
next two years, 2017-18, close to 100% Y/Y
• After that, growth will moderate, and possibly
even contract by end of five-year period
The Top of All Things in HPC, 2017
Site Census Snapshot Analysis
January 2018
• HPE, Dell EMC, and Lenovo remained the top three HPC
system suppliers, accounting for 45% share of all mentions.
• At commercial sites, HPE accounted for about 36% of the
reported installations, compared to Dell, the next closest
supplier, with about 13% of reported installations.

• IBM was the leading supplier with its multiple storage management
packages (Spectrum Scale, Spectrum Protect, HPSS). Spectrum Scale
accounts for about 70% of IBM’s mentions.
• Including all derivatives of Lustre and Spectrum Scale, the share for
both is almost the same.
Top Interconnects/Network Suppliers
Top System Interconnect Suppliers Top Storage Interconnect Suppliers Top LAN Suppliers
• In all locales, two vendors account for over 50% of the mentions, with
Mellanox being the only supplier in all three locales. Entries not specifying
supplier were not included in total.
• Mellanox gained share in every segment, with the largest increase (5%)
being for storage networks.
• Intel’s Omni-Path increased its presence for both interconnects and storage,
accounting for roughly 2% of all mentions in both locales.
Source of HPC Middleware
Source of Primary Middleware by Sector
Source of Primary Middleware Reported
• ISV and Open Source account for about 96% of all primary
middleware reported.
• Commercial sites have a preference for ISV supplied middleware.
• Top ISVs were Intel with its compilers and programming
environment software, MathWorks with Matlab, and IBM with
primarily its job and storage management software.
