Why TCO Doesn’t {Quite} Work for Comparing On-Premise and Cloud-Enabled HPC
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is a powerful financial tool that allows you to understand the direct and indirect expenses related to an asset, such as your HPC system. Calculating the TCO for an on-premise HPC system is direct: add up all expenses related to your system and its management for the entirety of its deployment. But…

The Ugly, Hidden and Underestimated Costs of Building an On-Premise HPC System
Depending on your current and future HPC and organizational demands, each system offers benefits and limitations that need to be defined and compared. One of the main comparisons between systems is usually the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). As I mentioned in a previous blog post, TCO not exactly a good fit for making buying decisions…

Addressing the Cloud Cynic
The Greek philosopher Diogenes kept dogs that served as emblems of his cynic philosophy. San Francisco, Calif., October 1, 2018 – I believe balance should be a welcomed philosophy for most (if not all) areas of life. Whether in business, or personal life, seeking balance can give us a deeper understanding of the true complexity of problems.…
