Intel hpc orchestrator 2

 The HPC Software ecosystem challenge were solving
Fragmented efforts across the
ecosystem, with minimal
commercial investment

New
A desire to complex
get exascale workloads
performance (ML, Big
& speed up Data, etc.)
software drive more
Everyone building their own adoption of complexity
solution HW into the
innovation software
stack

THE REALITY: We will not be able to get where we want to

go without a major change in system software development
