Milestone gives DOD organizations access to Rescale’s compute power without the need to recompete.
Rescale, the leader in secure high performance computing built for the cloud, announces the successful completion of an HPC Modernization Program prototype evaluation for the Department of Defense (DoD) Defense Innovation Unit (DIU). As a result, DIU has issued Rescale a Success Memorandum, making it possible for DoD organizations seeking compute power for mission needs to contract with Rescale without needing to re-compete.

To receive this DIU Success Memo, DIU evaluated Rescale in prototype usage with the DoD High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP).
The extensive evaluation completed over a multi-year period confirms that the Rescale cloud platform can provide secure, compliant, on-demand access to high performance computing (HPC) services by automating the management of state-of-the-art hybrid and multi-cloud HPC systems at scale.
In the DIU deployment, the Rescale platform was proven to offer considerable advantages for optimized, fast, efficient access to HPC systems including both on-premises data centers and through major cloud services, DIU stated in the success memo.
The capabilities provided by Rescale enhance the ability of the DoD and other federal agencies to process production and research workloads for operational, strategic, and environmental analysis, as well as the coordination of resources in an environment that meets some of the nation’s top security standards and regulations. It demonstrates that Rescale’s HPC-as-a service powers technological breakthroughs by greatly reducing the complexities of running HPC and AI computational tasks.
