EASME awards €1.5m HPC grant
Bright Computing has been awarded an Horizon 2020 grant of over €1.5m from the Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (EASME) for its Bright Beyond high performance computing (HPC) programme.
The programme focuses on developing, testing, demonstrating, and validating additional software modules and functions for Bright Cluster Manager for HPC, Bright Cluster Manager for Big Data, and Bright OpenStack. The new features are designed to enable current and future users in enterprise, government, academia and research organisations to manage their advanced IT infrastructures more easily than ever before.
“Bright Computing is honoured to receive this grant and eager to place powerful new management capabilities in the hands of our customers in HPC, Big Data, and Cloud,” said CEO Dr Matthijs van Leeuwen.
“We recognise that deployment and use of these advanced technologies is not only expanding but converging, and we remain committed to delivering a powerful, integrated ‘single pane of glass’ management platform that helps IT organisations to gain visibility, control, and peace of mind.”
Alongside the funding, Bright Computing, the leading provider of hardware-agnostic cluster and Cloud management software worldwide, will receive world-class business coaching.
