The high-performance computing market is expected to witness a CAGR of 6.13% over the forecast period 2020-2025. With the growth of technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and 3D imaging, the size and amount of data that organizations have to work with are growing exponentially. Therefore, fueled by the growth of AI and IoT, high-performance computing is increasingly used to drive commercial, industrial, and personal usage.

• The adoption of high-performance computing (HPC) systems with computer-aided engineering (CAE) software for high-fidelity modeling simulation is on the rise among various industries, such as automotive, discrete manufacturing, and healthcare robotics.
• Additionally, the regulatory requirements for energy consumption, sustainability and safety, and the cost pressure are at the top across the world, which is rapidly increasing, resulting in increased complexity for the engineers in the field for development. Hence, digital engineering is gaining importance as a core strategy to these challenges with virtual testing and simulation for every aspect of the products in the automotive industry.
• In November 2018, Intel had unveiled Cascade Lake Advance Performance (AP), a 48-core Xeon variant aimed at the high-performance computing crowd. Intel characterized the new AP processor line as designed for the most demanding high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI) and infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) workloads.
• HPC services are also getting traction in recent years. These services are the majority in terms of consultation, deployment, and maintenance. Companies, such as HPE, have mentioned focusing on providing HPC services, such as advisory services and professional services for integration and installation.
• Moreover, cloud-based HPC solutions are gaining traction in the market due to their cost-effective pay-as-you-go pricing model. This has become a critical factor in driving the market as the volume, variety, and velocity of data generated have evolved exponentially and are expected to further increase with the 5G technology already getting adoption.
• HPC is recognized as one of the powerful tools in assisting the healthcare sector and the researchers to fight against COVID-19. Folding home is one such project lead by OCF for simulating protein dynamics, including the process of protein folding and the movements of proteins implicated in a variety of diseases. The University of Aberdeen, the University of East Anglia, and the Plymouth Marine Laboratory have joined this project to run simulations of protein dynamics on their personal computers and provide new opportunities for developing therapeutics.
• However, the rising concerns related to the safety and legitimate use of this data is a significant challenge for the growth of this market.
