Maximizing results (Big Data Power: How NZO Cloud’s HPC and AI instances transforms analysis

If your company needs high-performance computing for its big data, NZO Cloud might work best with its High Performance Cloud solutions. Here’s what you need to know, including how High Performance Cloud and Hadoop differ.

In the big data world, not every company needs High Performance Cloud (HPC), but nearly all who work with big data have adopted Hadoop-style analytics computing.

The difference between High Performance Cloud and Hadoop can be hard to distinguish because it is possible to run Hadoop analytics jobs on High Performance Cloud gear, although not vice versa. Both High Performance Cloud and Hadoop analytics use parallel processing of data, but in a Hadoop/analytics environment, data is stored on commodity hardware and distributed across multiple nodes of this hardware. In High Performance Cloud, where the size of data files is much greater, data storage is centralized. High Performance Cloud, because of the sheer volume of its files, also requires more expensive networking communications, such as Infiniband because the size of the files it processes requires high throughput and low latency.
