From Moosecot Madness to a New Platform: Alces Flight Returns to SC’24

Alces Flight returns to SC with a new platform that makes HPC/AI accessible, efficient, and carbon-friendly. Experience Supercomputing by Subscription firsthand at Booth #1004 – a smarter approach to HPC and AI.

We’re thrilled to announce that Alces Flight is making its fifth appearance at the SC conference this year in Atlanta, Georgia! With the launch of our latest subscription service, community outreach activities, and a host of fun giveaways, we’re all set to make SC’24 one for the books. Read on to see what’s in store!

Supercomputing by Subscription: A New Era in HPC/AI

This year, we’re introducing Supercomputing by Subscription, designed to help organisations gain insights, manage costs, and improve performance across their HPC/AI estate. This new service simplifies the complexity of supercomputing deployment, providing your team with tools that are efficient, accessible, and cost-effective. Launch the HPC or AI platform that meets your needs, in an eco-friendly data-centre that minimises carbon usage – ready to go with the application and tools of your choice!

Stop by Booth #1004 from November 17–22 and see Supercomputing by Subscription in action! Our team will be ready to show you how it can simplify your organisation’s HPC and AI management and capabilities. Curious about how this subscription service could transform your HPC/AI usage? Contact us to find out more!

Building Connections with Community

We’re proud to be partnering again with Women in HPC (WHPC) to support diversity and inclusivity in supercomputing. This year, our team has been working with WHPC to organise a complete series of engagements that are open to SC passholders.  Have a look at the event lineup and join us in celebrating diversity in our community!

We’re also pleased to be returning as volunteers for the SC’24 Communications Team. We’ll be out and about capturing video and candid photos throughout the conference – as well as helping launch SC25.  Be sure to say hello when you see our Flight Crew around the conference centre and remember to tag us using #SC24, #OptInHPC and/or #GoCompute in your posts so that we can feature you in the official SC24 daily re-cap.

Partner Talks and Projects

We are pleased to join our partners, Google Cloud, at their booth on Tuesday and Wednesday, November 19th at 20th from 3:00 – 3:30 PM.  On Tuesday, join us as we talk about our work with Move the Needle – our year-long partnership with Women in HPC to explore equity, diversity, inclusion and accessibility in supercomputing.  On Wednesday, we’ll be talking about all things carbon – and what we’ve learned about hardware, emissions, and leveraging intelligent use of machines and cloud partnerships for the best eco-outcome.  This talk is in thanks to our Sustainable Reality event held annually in the UK.

Whether you’re drawn by cutting-edge tech or exclusive swag, the Alces Flight booth has something for everyone to enjoy!  Check out our booth page now and start your journey.
