SSTC Technology Consulting Overview
"Customer-Oriented Consulting Service by Collaboration with Customers"
Index:::
"Technology" is a strategic foundation of the enterprise. And it is now
critical for the enterprise to combine various "Technologies" and utilize them
effectively. However, it is becoming increasingly more complex for enterprises,
especially in strategic business.
There is a risk when investing in technologies, as well as not investing in
them at all. It is important to make decisions and move them into action in
right timing, not too early but not too late. Therefore, it is important for you to receive appropriate specialized
consulting for success of your business. Scalable Systems supports enterprises
and research laboratories with high-end computer systems by offering appropriate
consultation on "Technology" for your success.
Integration and Collaboration of Technologies
It is often explained that system integration is just to build up
technologies for customers. However, it is not that easy as individual
technologies are closely linked with one another. It becomes necessary in HPC
systems integration to assure effective linkage and cooperation among various
technologies today. Integration of system is being transformed from "Vertical
and pyramid style" to "Horizontal and mesh style" as IT is becoming a global
standard.
So now the effective linkage of complex technologies and enhancement of the
value of individual technology as the most suitable solution is the key to lead
customers' various projects to success. Maximizing advantages of resources one
another, and collaborating and integrating in real time, we can enhance value of
technologies. Relations among technologies in this collaboration would vary
depending on the situation and the environment. And we need to reconfigure the
value-chain with this collaboration by an appropriate judgement, experience and
an insight into the future.
In technology consultations Scalable Systems offers, we aim to optimize the
collaboration of technologies and to enhance the value of an individual
technology. This collaboration takes the central role as “Hub” to establish
virtual organization flexibly and builds up scalable systems that can achieve
higher productivity.
Consultation Models
Scalable Systems provides services in three fields; "Offering technical
information", "Marketing support", and "Project support" in our consultation. We
offer extensive and latest technical intelligence regularly in various forms,
such as websites, news letters and lectures. In our marketing support, we
respond to your various demands for sales support. In our project support,
Scalable Systems provides a wide range of consultation in compliance with
demands from customers to make their "Project" a success.
Scalable Systems consults on these three business fields. We offer more
effective consultations especially for HPC system users and IT vendors providing
the systems to end-users in these fields, each of which links up one another and
fit together. We promote our customers’ project in collaboration with customers
and our partner companies. Our consultation is always for providing the best
environment to create new business value with value-chain. It is necessary to
attempt dynamic collaborations to meet diversified needs of "Customers" in real
time. Scalable Systems aims at the creation of new business value by these
dynamic collaborations.
Consultations on System Integration
In system integration, it is the most important to select most appropriate
system for the demanded workload. You need to evaluate an existing system to
current workload properly and to understand the bottleneck of current system.
Then you will have to decide the specification etc. of ' benchmark' to be
executed upon the selection of new system.
You need to be careful when executing benchmark, not to choose improper
specification or method to evaluate a part of the whole system only, otherwise
you may fail to select the appropriate system that can handle the future
workload.
When integrating systems, it is necessary to establish a virtual organization
flexibly and to realize its proper business process, then you can configure the
best system with collaboration in this virtual organization. In this process,
you need accumulated knowledge on system integration. Scalable Systems supports
system configurations with higher value for customers with full of technical
knowledge and provision and forecast to systems.
Scalable Computing
Future microprocessors will rapidly implement multi-core and improve
processing speed and performance in order to push back the boundaries of
traditional increase of operating frequency. Then more efficient multi-thread
processing on a multi-core processor and programming on scalable systems with
plural multi-core processors become increasing challenges. Scalable Systems
provides consultations for scalable computing technologies to maximize
performance of multi-core processors and complete solution to these issues.
Heralding increased performance, efficiencies, and challenges, the shift to
multi-core changes the rules. While multi-core processors hold the promise of
increased performance and greater efficiency than today’s single core chips, the
technology faces several challenges.
The major CPU vendors have already shifted their strategy from speeding up
clock frequency to adding more cores in one microprocessor and supporting
parallel processing on chips. In order for application softwares to truly
leverage a multi-core system, architects, programers and build managers will
need to design and compile the software for threading. This does have to be more
work, or take more time for improving developers’ productivity and software
performance by exploiting the capabilities of new processors and platform. Our
technology consultation with full of experience and knowledge in parallel
processing and applications supports customers on all fronts of multi-core
platforms.
