But the big news as far as we are concerned is that Intel is no longer interested in being a prime contractor for big supercomputer deals, something that it was very eager to do when Raj Hazra was general manager of the Technical Computing Group within Intel’s Data Center Group back in 2015 and interestingly was also put in charge of the Enterprise Computing unit at the same time. And, as usual, we will provide some historical context for why Intel is changing its HPC strategy and tactics going forward.
We will get into new people in charge and their HPC strategy under the watchful eye of Gelsinger, as far as it can be revealed today at least, in a moment. But the fate of its HPC organization, which has been less focused than it has been in past years, was still a big unknown until the company quietly did some finer-grained work on its organizational chart and management and engineering assignments in recent weeks, which is now known if not publicly announced. Intel has spent the past nine months reorganizing itself in the wake of Pat Gelsinger becoming its chief executive officer in January, including new groups and divisions and new managers for them that were revealed in June.
