Cambridge Computer Named 2023 Americas NVIDIA Partner Network Higher Education Partner of the Year

Waltham, MA – April 4, 2023 – For the third year in a row, Cambridge was awarded the NVIDIA Partner Network (NPN) Higher Education Partner of the Year, making them one of the few partners to win this award consecutively.

Since 2016, Cambridge has collaborated with NVIDIA to provide specialized technology solutions addressing parallel and high-throughput file systems, high-speed/low-latency interconnects, and compute technologies designed to solve large-scale problems for high-performance computing (HPC), machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI) workloads. In addition to their deep specialization and expertise in research computing, the Cambridge team works to ensure solutions align with clients’ budgetary and technological requirements.

After receiving the award in 2021 and 2022, Cambridge launched several initiatives committed to promoting its thought leadership in HPC/AI/ML integrating NVIDIA products and solutions. In July 2022, Cambridge elevated its role in the industry by creating its very own HPC AI Day at the national PEARC conference. In collaboration with NVIDIA, Cambridge curated content around hot HPC/AI/ML topics, such as NVIDIA BlueField data processing units (DPUs), NVIDIA GPUDirect Storage software, composable infrastructure, and more. Cambridge continues to organize smaller, personalized versions of this event with its active clients. If you’d like to learn more, please reach out to Alex McElhoe (amcelhoe@cambridgecomputer.com).

The Cambridge Computer HPC and Research Computing team delivers industry-leading solutions to research, commercial, and federal customers across the U.S. By employing several Ph.D.-level subject matter experts, Cambridge has more than 50 years of combined experience across scientific fields, such as chemical and mechanical engineering, to name a few. Most of the Cambridge HPC and Research Computing team members have also held key senior technical and management roles in various technology manufacturers.
