Total cost of ownership for engineering modeling and simulations workflows, for both on-premises and cloud-based HPC resources.
Many organizations focus heavily on the system’s initial capital cost when developing criteria and reviewing proposals for new procurements. While this is crucial for evaluating ROI, research shows that the initial purchase cost accounts for only half of the total expenses over the system’s useful life. This data point highlights the importance of understanding the total cost of ownership (TCO) when determining the full return on investment.
This white paper explores various TCO models for on-premises and cloud-based HPC infrastructure. It includes best practices for users to consider when developing their own TCO models and for vendors supporting users’ TCO efforts.
