What are HPC SDKs?
HPC SDK stands for High Performance Computing Software Development Kit and is a kit containing a complete set of pre-configured software development tools for compiling, running, debugging, and optimizing Fortran and C/C++ applications for HPC clusters and grids. Because clusters and grids often utilize software from several different sources, configuring software tools to work together can be a time consuming task. The HPC SDK typically saves several weeks of configuration and testing. Absoft has worked closely with Apple, IBM, Intel, Pathscale and others to create pre-configured SDKs which include ‘best of breed tools’ for the different cluster architectures.
