This article covers the perspective on the synergy of HPC and AI along with some prominent use cases where AI augments HPC workloads.

5G, with its faster speeds and more reliable connections rests its future on software-defined networking (SDN) which is responsible for redefining the network architecture to support the requirements of the forthcoming 5G ecosystem. SDN along with Network Function Virtualization (NFV) are now being commercially deployed to deliver greater network flexibility by allowing traditional network architectures to be sliced into virtual elements leading to network slicing that will maximize the flexibility of 5G networks, optimizing both the utilization of the infrastructure and the allocation of resources.

The article talks about the hybrid/ multi-cloud space and how major cloud vendors, especially Google is foraying into this area. It talks about Google Anthos, an enterprise hybrid and multi-cloud platform, which lets you build and manage modern hybrid applications on existing On-Prem DC or in the cloud. It covers the key components which make up Google Anthos such as GKE, Istio Velostrata and others along with the partner ecosystem that Google has in place for Anthos. Last, but not the least, it talks about how Google Anthos impacts the Industry Dynamics/ Hybrid Cloud Ecosystem and what all benefits it provides to the enterprise customers.
