ANSYS Enterprise Cloud A Unique Single-Tenant Simulation Platform on the Public Cloud

[speaker]

ANSYS, Inc.


Notes to Presenter This presentation is intended for a management-level audience that has been

pre-qualified as interested in ANSYS Enterprise Cloud. The customer should be looking for more efficient deployment of simulation at an enterprise level, and interested in how ANSYS can help them consider the public cloud as a deployment option.

The presentation begins with a statement of the trends (and pain points) we see our large customers dealing with in the context of the IT environment for simulation. These trends lead to cloud as an obvious strategy. The presentation mentions the full range of ANSYS cloud solutions (our Open Cloud Strategy™) but focuses quickly on Enterprise Cloud as the recommended path for these customers.

Slides 7-12 describe the ANSYS Enterprise Cloud and it’s value proposition.

Slides 13-15 get into details of what you buy from ANSYS, system management, and ROI. These may or may not be appropriate for a first introduction.

There is a separate cloud presentation for customers who are less concerned with global deployment and more interested in “just” HPC outsourcing (or who prefer a regional cloud vendor over AWS). This separate presentation focuses on the ANSYS Cloud Partner Program and is called “ANSYS Cloud Partners – Customer Presentation”.

Globalization And HPC Scale-up Are Driving A Paradigm Shift In The Deployment Of Simulation

HPC infrastructure and data is evolving to centralized and consolidated resources, with users remote, global, and mobile.

Driven by:

• Scaled up demand for high performance computing (HPC) to support higher fidelity simulation results and design exploration

• Operational efficiency and asset optimization, CAPEX vs OPEX

• Need for collaboration and data sharing across geographically distributed users

• Increasing focus on simulation IP protection and process traceability

ANSYS Enterprise Cloud A Single-Tenant Simulation Platform on the Public Cloud


Remote rendering delivers 3D graphics performance and large memory,

providing a high-end workstation experience in the cloud.

Software Runs Interactively on the Cloud

• Rendering on Linux g2.2xlarge

• r3 application server running Windows, up to 244 GB or RAM


Auto-scaling HPC provisions resources on-demand, using machine

configurations optimized for specific workloads.

HPC jobs run on an auto-scaling cluster

• Scale on demand

• Match compute instances to workloads

• Optimize steady state (reserved) and on-demand AWS spend


ANSYS Cloud Gateway provides an extensible Web-UI, built to manage simulation jobs and data.

The ANSYS Cloud Gateway provides a secure browser-based environment for data management, job management, and remote session management – securely over https.


Parallel Solver Performance

10 GigE limits solver scalability

However, the vast majority of customer problems can be solved …

…and investigate as many design iterations as you like!

Excerpt from CIMdata Commentary

Source: Bringing ANSYS MultiphysicsTM to the Cloud—CIMdata Commentary, May 2015

CIMdata believes that intelligent use of the cloud and cloud-based computing resources such as ANSYS Enterprise Cloud will help companies

in all industries to better develop innovative products in a more cost-effective and timely manner. The ANSYS offering is an excellent example of how using the

Cloud can make more powerful and comprehensive simulation and analysis more readily available and easier to use for a wide range of engineers in

globally distributed enterprises—throughout the product development process.
