High Performance Computing (HPC) technology, although not new, is relatively unknown in the banking sector. There is an understandable nervousness around bringing niche hardware into essentially commodity based Data Centres with well understood and effective support and maintenance models. This technology is not cheap, and by itself it will provide no benefit. As with all tools, it has to be understood and used properly.
