2014 Annual Conference of Zhongguancun Forum Unleashing the Power of Big Data and HPC to Innovative Small Business. Big Data and High Performance Computing (HPC) are key factors in knowledge and innovation in many fields of industry and service, with high economic and social issues: aerospace, finance and business intelligence, energy and environment, chemicals and materials, medicine and biology , digital art and games, Web and social networks, ... Today, acquiring high-end data centers and supercomputers is very expensive, making Big Data and HPC unreachable to small business for their research and development. For reasons both technical and economic, access to such technologies is difficult to fundamental actors of growth that are small and medium-sized innovative companies. That is why it is important to support them in this process. This a fundamental tool for competitiveness and innovation capacity of service and industry enterprises. The CloudPower project offers a low cost Cloud HPC/BigData service for small and medium-sized innovative companies. With CloudPower, companies and scientists will run their simulations to design and develop new products on a powerful, scalable, economical, reliable and secure infrastructure. CloudPower leverages on the open-source software XtremWeb-HEP previously developed by the CNRS and INRIA in France. The principle of the technology is to collect the under-exploited resources on the Internet and Data Centers to build a virtual supercomputer providing HPC and Big Data services on demand. CloudPower is supported by the French National Research Agency (ANR) and a start-up company will be created in 2015.
