High Performance Computing (HPC)

Run complex workloads, such as advanced simulations and other scientific applications, cost-effectively on the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) HPC platform. The OCI HPC platform brings together industry-leading bare metal instances, ultralow-latency networking, and high performance storage that rivals the performance of on-premises solutions.

Why choose OCI HPC?

  • Leading price-performance

    OCI bare metal instances, not available from other cloud providers, coupled with microsecond-latency RDMA cluster networking provide 50% better price-performance and 3.5X time savings for HPC workloads compared with previous-generation compute.

  • Options for every workload

    OCI provides bare metal instances powered by Intel CPUs, AMD CPUs, and NVIDIA GPUs for various demanding workloads, including AI/ML, complex mathematical simulations, and big data analytics.

  • Rich partner ecosystem

    Oracle works closely with an array of partners across industries and with open source projects to support customers and provide proven solutions for a wide array of HPC tasks.

HPC solutions by industry

Oracle built the infrastructure and services in the cloud to support enterprise-class customers' needs across multiple industries and industry use cases.

Manufacturing

HPC on OCI allows our manufacturing customers to run larger workloads faster and support more computationally complex simulations. From crash-test simulations to aerodynamics, HPC on OCI provides the compute capability to run these workloads at a higher performance than any other cloud provider.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

CFD is a common workload that simulates the motion of air and fluid to simplify and speed product engineering. For example, in the automotive sector, it helps manufacturers simulate cabin airflow, engine oil dynamics, and the air flow around the car to improve fuel efficiency. It is a tightly coupled MPI-based workload that benefits from Oracle’s 100 Gbps cluster networking, high-frequency Intel processor-based compute instances, and the latest NVIDIA GPUs.
