    Overview

    Running CFD simulations on the cloud offers increased flexibility and scalability over on-premise hardware, with on-demand access and unlimited capacity. However, setting up and accessing the cloud using 3rd party providers often requires significant time and expertise in cloud and HPC technologies and interrupts existing workflows. Simcenter X, part of the Xcelerator as a Service (XaaS) offering, gives you instant access to virtual engineering workstation and HPC cluster environments running on optimized Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure, configured and managed by Siemens, with no additional setup needed.

    Highlights

    • Accessible - Immediately leverage simulation tools from any device. Quickly and easily build and run simulations in the cloud, access results and share files.
    • Flexible - Cloud gives you the freedom to access burst capacity when you need to, or to replace on-premises hardware. Quickly scale up or down as needed to meet those tight deadlines with time to spare or to tackle more ambitious projects. Transform CAPEX to OPEX to be more agile and get a better grip on cost by directly attributing it to simulation activities.
    • Scalable - Leverage the effectively unlimited capacity of AWS to run more simulations simultaneously and make faster and better informed decisions. Rest assured your simulations will be running on the latest hardware and infrastructure, configured according to best practices and managed by Siemens.
