Initiative with Cray Inc. will address growing complications with enterprise data analytics, collaboration and processing leveraging the power of semantic technology
BOSTON, Jan. 10 -- Cambridge Semantics, a provider of semantic technology-powered application development tools, today announced an agreement with Cray Inc. to collectively develop and market high performance data solutions. Through the agreement, both companies will jointly market and sell current and new solutions, including the Cray XMT system and Cambridge Semantics' Anzo product suite.
"We are very excited about working with Cray to address the growing enterprise data market needs," said Alok Prasad, Cambridge Semantics' president. "Combining the flexibility and speed Cambridge Semantics brings to multi-source data integration with Cray's computing power provides next generation capabilities to enterprises."
Alok continued, "This agreement will enable businesses to handle complex queries and data analytics, address high volume collaboration across partners and across firewalls, and support data driven process needs where data from varied sources can be rapidly integrated to address high volumes of complex data."
"We are working on innovative solutions to enable knowledge discovery from web scale data," said Shoaib Mufti, director of Knowledge Management in Cray's Custom Engineering group. "The Anzo product suite running on the Cray XMT system is designed to give users the ability to perform complex analysis in real time, while staying within their familiar development environment."
About Cambridge Semantics
Cambridge Semantics provides semantic technology-powered application development products. The company's Anzo Suite enables non-technical knowledge workers, such as financial analysts, research scientists, and general business users, to respond to dynamic and unanticipated situations at the speed of business using tools they already know, including Microsoft Excel and web browsers. Using Anzo, end users, without having to rely on IT, can create enterprise applications complete with access control and data lineage that enable reporting on data previously trapped in Excel silos. Cambridge Semantics is a privately-held company based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. For more information, visit www.cambridgesemantics.com.

When it comes to cloud, long distances mean unacceptably high latencies. Researchers from the University of Bonn in Germany examined those latency issues of doing CFD modeling in the cloud by utilizing a common CFD and its utilization in HPC instance types including both CPU and GPU cores of Amazon EC2.
