platform provider Nimbix
Paris
(France), Irving,
Texas (US) July
27, 2021
– Atos today announced it has reached an agreement
to acquire Nimbix, a global leading high-performance computing
(HPC) cloud platform provider based in the US, to strengthen its
HPC offering. With this acquisition, Atos, already a European
leader in HPC, enhances its existing capabilities and position
itself as a leader in HPC cloud enablement.
Established in 2010 and headquartered just
outside Dallas, Texas, Nimbix offers cloud and on premises HPC,
giving engineers and scientists access to infrastructure and
software needed to build, compute, analyze, scale, and deploy
simulations, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Deep
Learning applications. The company has executed thousands of cloud
HPC projects in 68 countries.
Atos’ and Nimbix’s combined capabilities offer a
comprehensive solution for workload orchestration for both on-prem
and cloud customers. The joint solution enables higher levels of
self service and automation, enhancing Atos’ capabilities with
multi-cloud bursting and hybrid capability. This will enable Atos
to expand its market offering and reach with a strong proposition
in HPC cloud, under the Atos brand as part of its OneCloud
initiative. The unique intellectual property provided by Nimbix
will accelerate Atos’ HPCaaS developments and go-to-market plans
with Cloud Services Providers, as well as increasing and
accelerating Atos’ HPC footprint in North America. It will also
help strengthen Atos’s HPC propositions in key markets such as
Manufacturing, Financial Services & Insurance, Healthcare &
Life Sciences in addition to Public Sector & Defense, by
simplifying the access to HPC services without heavy up-front
CAPEX.
Nimbix is able to leverage Atos’ global
footprint and industry-leading supercomputing and artificial
intelligence infrastructure portfolio to deliver ground-breaking
capabilities for enterprises advancing hybrid cloud as part of
their strategies for HPC and AI.
“Two-thirds of HPC users are already
incorporating cloud computing as part of their overall strategy,
and that number continues to grow. We’ve seen double-digit growth
in cloud for five years, and that trend will continue for the next
five. But it’s important to realize that these are hybrid
strategies, in which cloud resources are complementing on-premises
computing, not replacing it. The Atos acquisition of Nimbix
addresses this trend precisely, wrapping hybrid cloud know-how with
domain-specific HPC expertise. The reach and experience of Nimbix
will give Atos reach to more HPC users and use cases.” said
Addison Snell,
Chief Executive Officer at
Intersect360
Research
“HPC Cloud is growing year-on-year and 2021
represents a tipping point where an increasingly large portion of
the global HPC market is adopting cloud as a core part of its HPC
strategy. With this acquisition, we will be able to complement our
existing HPC offering and expertise with a comprehensive solution,
providing customers with the most advanced hybrid cloud
capabilities to better manage the use, performance and delivery of
services for both cloud-native and on-prem deployments. Nimbix’s
technology is ahead of the market and, combined with its strong
experience and highly skilled experts, will strengthen the Atos
teams and enable us to expand our market offering and reach.”
said Pierre
Barnabé,
Senior Executive Vice
President, Global Head of
Big Data & Security at
Atos.
“Having pioneered advanced HPC capabilities in
cloud computing over the last many years, we are very excited to
join forces with Atos, a global leader in HPC infrastructure and
digital transformation. We are confident that our combined
capabilities bring new solutions and offer significant value to our
respective clients. We look forward to enabling our mutual
customers to accelerate their rate of innovation with our combined
HPC offerings.” said Steve
Hebert, CEO and
Co-founder
of Nimbix.
