Argo Graphics Inc.: Parallelization Strategy for High-speed Data Processing

Every year, many organizations are investing heavily in supercomputers, open-systems, and analytics for real-time data discovery. The introduction of high-end graphics in data processing based on large data analysis applications and graphic computation has escalated the need for HPC (High Performance Computing). Enterprises need ultimate computing acceleration for addressing a wide spectrum of challenges including augmented data processing, visualization, and adaptation in the simplest way. HPC is also witnessing its necessity for computer simulations that require intensive processing power for real-time results. With on-premise clusters assisting in computations and simulations, the CIOs prioritize on extending the reach to graphical computing with robust hardware. “HPC activities were focused on Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) server area through PC clusters and now extend to the recent General-Purpose Graphics Processing Unit (GPGPU) computation,” begins Muneshi Ozaki, President and COO, Argo Graphics.

Headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, Argo Graphics leverages parallelization and optimization technology through system design for enabling high-speed processing of large-scale technical computations. Any computation intensive program takes hours for completing the process. But with parallelization, a system can divide the task amongst the processors for reducing the total time taken for calculation. Argo Graphics provides HPC solution which incorporates parallelization of customer code. It ensures faster calculations by distributing the code in modules to different processors. This also enhances HPC system’s performance by deploying the file systems in a parallel manner. Complex calculations are also difficult to manage in a large HPC environment. The offering provides total management system for large scale computing.

Today, industries need real-time data on their dashboards for taking decisions instantly. However, deployment at industrial level needs reliability with high speed processing. Argo Graphics provides simulation solutions that are designed and engineered as per the requirement of particular industry. “In the public sector, we provide simulation systems including calculations of environment and atomic energies,” says Ozaki.
