PITTSBURGH, May 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- ANSYS (NASDAQ:
ANSS) customers can now deploy consistent enterprise-specific
simulation workflows and data to more engineers, regardless of
geographic location or business unit with today's launch of
ANSYS® 16.1 and ANSYS® Enterprise
Cloud™.
The new solution, running on Amazon Web Services (AWS),
simplifies and accelerates the transition to cloud-based simulation
by providing a reference architecture for end-to-end simulation
that can be deployed within days – minimizing risk while boosting
productivity. Customers who adopt the ANSYS Enterprise Cloud can
scale their simulation capacity – including infrastructure and
software assets – on demand, in response to changing business
requirements, optimizing efficiency and cost while responding to
the growing demand for wider use of the technology.
"HGST sees the use of cloud computing as an important paradigm
shift, providing increased business agility and the capacity when
and where we need it," said Steve
Phillpott, chief information officer of HGST, Inc. "We are
impressed that the ANSYS solution delivers the full end-to-end
simulation process in the cloud, allowing us to maintain models,
simulate and analyze results directly in our virtual private cloud
(VPC) environment. Keeping everything in HGST's VPC mitigates
compliance, connectivity, performance and latency issues that are
unique challenges for complex modeling and simulation workflows
such as ours."
The ANSYS Enterprise Cloud has been carefully architected to
remove previous barriers to adoption of cloud computing for
engineering simulation. Delivered in a single-tenant environment
that secures customer data, the solution supports 3-D interactive
graphics workloads and auto-scaling high-performance computing
(HPC), so results don't need to move between end users and the
cloud datacenter.
With the ANSYS Enterprise Cloud, more engineers can access the
software and hardware tools they need, enabling broader adoption of
simulation technologies and helping organizations stay competitive
while focusing on their core competencies.
"ANSYS has supported cloud solutions for a number of years, but
ANSYS Enterprise Cloud takes the simulation of complete virtual
prototypes to an entirely new level by providing our full suite of
comprehensive engineering simulation solutions on a global cloud
platform" said Jim Cashman, ANSYS
CEO. "Customers don't want to be saddled with specifying,
procuring, deploying and managing simulation infrastructure. That's
where ANSYS Enterprise Cloud excels. Outsourcing the simulation
datacenter allows customers to focus on developing breakthrough
products while freeing up capital for other investments."
In addition to the cloud offering, ANSYS 16.1 delivers
advancements in the area of parametric optimization. Genetic
aggregation, in ANSYS DesignXplorer™, automates the selection of
best response surface algorithm. The result is a highly
accurate response surface, created automatically and in a fraction
of the time versus other optimization solutions. That enables users
to realize their most innovative designs quickly and with
confidence.
With the new release, ANSYS AIM™ continues to redefine how
multiphysics simulation is performed in a single user environment.
AIM, a next-generation simulation environment, extends the value of
simulation beyond single engineering disciplines by providing a
full array of physics in a unified, immersive user environment
readily deployable across the organization. This release delivers
several productivity innovations and supports kinematic joints for
assemblies in motion.
The latest release of ANSYS Redhawk™ is optimized to solve the
challenges inherent in 10-nanometer and smaller integrated circuit
(IC) design challenges, including higher current density and
increased reliability challenges such as electromigration failures.
ANSYS 16.1 also introduces distributed machine processing, which
enables simulation of the largest and most modern IC designs that
can be solved fast on hardware found in typical clusters and
servers.
