Hyperion in the News

ST PAUL, Minn., March 24, 2022 — Hyperion Research, the leading industry analyst and market intelligence firm for high performance computing (HPC) and associated emerging technologies including, Advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI), High-Performance Data Analysis (HPDA), Quantum Computing, Cloud and Edge Computing, has announced the results of their 2021 HPC market growth tracking.

HPC industry analyst firm Hyperion Research today announced that registration is open for the HPC User Forum’s March 2022 virtual meeting. As with previous HPC User Forum virtual events, the upcoming March meeting will be streamed multiple times to accommodate participants in different global time zones.

Currently, there are many qubit technologies vying for sway in quantum computing. So far, superconducting (IBM, Google) and trapped ion (IonQ, Quantinuum) have dominated the conversation. Microsoft’s proposed topological qubit, which relies on the existence of a still-unproven particle (Majorana), may be the most intriguing

Quantum computing is as eagerly anticipated a technology as there’s ever been. The scientific and Wall Street communities, to name just two market segments, can’t wait to get their hands on quantum systems able to handle workloads beyond the reach of classical HPC. In the meantime, the technology world waits impatiently while quantum R&D proceeds.

The world of quantum computing now has another big player vying for business. Quantinuum, which launched today, is the product of a combination between Cambridge Quantum, a British company that’s a leader in quantum software and operating systems, and Honeywell Quantum Solutions (HQS), which has been carved out of U.S. parent company Honeywell and specializes in building quantum computers.

The last several years have been challenging for the oil and gas industry on nearly all fronts. Still, to keep both the upstream and downstream businesses on the cutting edge, the segment has had to keep spending mightily on supercomputing resources.
