What is High Performance Computing Storage?

High Performance Computing (HPC) is used to solve the worlds most difficult problems, such as weather forecasting, DNA sequencing, quantum physics, oil and gas exploration, understanding the universe etc. Super high-speed calculations must be performed on very large datasets. The storage used must match this high-speed. However, often only a small subset is analyzed at one time, therefore high-performance and high-capacity archive storage is used to store data that is currently not being analyzed.
