Microsoft HPC++ CompFin Lab

What's that? At least a pretty cool offering!

The HPC++ Labs in general are an incubation effort within the Microsoft HPC Server product team. Some of its goals are:

  • Demonstrate end-to-end integrated HPC solutions using Windows HPC Server 2008 and Microsoft productivity and developer products
  • Develop expertise in operating end user focused compute and data intensive HPC services
  • Incubate Microsoft product extensions required to support HPC++ scenarios “out of the box” on customer premises

The HPC++ CompFin Lab in particular integrates Microsoft HPC Server, a central market data database and Microsoft productivity products to provide university courses with an online service to publish, execute and manage computational finance models.

If you want to know more, here's the website. The team also has a blog on our windowshpc.net HPC community portal.
