TotalCAE is unique in the industry with a simple-to-use SaaS platform that enables engineers to run hundreds of engineering and scientific codes both on-premises and in the cloud, all managed by TotalCAE in your data center or cloud subscription.

TotalCAE works with organizations that are limited by on-premises workstations and looking to HPC to increase CAE engineering throughput, but face challenges in how to adopt production-level HPC capabilities. Organizations get bogged down in evaluating a wide range of cloud or on-premises options, build vs. buy options, and figuring out who is going to be responsible for keeping the environment working for engineers.

This paper examines common pitfalls TotalCAE has encountered through helping hundreds of clients adopt HPC for their CAE simulation over the last 14 years. New technologies such as cloud computing infrastructure have made HPC hardware more ubiquitous, but have added complexities for clients wanting to introduce them into their environments. Simply buying hardware, whether it be in the cloud or on-premises, does not always result in a usable solution for CAE engineering and thus leaves engineers frustrated at not being able to benefit from the promise of HPC. Learn how TotalCAE helps clients avoid these pitfalls and adopt production-ready HPC through their managed HPC cluster and cloud solutions.
