Hybrid Cluster Implementation Grants Users Full Control, Saves Costs

Fixstars Solutions desired to run Kubernetes jobs with both CPU and GPU. In order to do so, they used WireGuard and Kubernetes to create a hybrid cluster. This allowed them to utilize cloud service providers and their own own-premise machines to run Kubernetes jobs, and also granted Fixstars more control over their hardware with high security, while saving money without relying on AWS EKS rental equipment. With a Kubernetes Hybrid Cluster, Fixstars has full control over cost, flexibility, security, data governance and hardware for their clusters.

NoRMCorre Acceleration by GPU for Neuroscientists, 2x Faster than Standard CPU

NoRMCorre is a motion correction algorithm commonly used by neuroscientists. However, it is one of the most time-consuming pipelines used for neuroanalysis. We ported and optimized NoRMCorre to GPU, and our accelerated GPU version runs 2x faster than the original CPU version of NoRMCorre, using a rigid mode data set.

In-Situ Sequencing Acceleration by GPU and Flash Storage for Neuroscientists, Shortened a 6 Month Analysis into 5 Days

In-Situ Sequencing is a new sequencing method which, unlike conventional DNA/RNA methods, is able to simultaneously profile sequences of bases and their locations in a cell. Before our In-Situ Sequencing acceleration, our client's software took about 6 months to analyze RNA images captured by microscopes. Our experienced engineers improved the software source code, improving the performance by 35x, which shortened the usual 6 month analysis into 5 days.

Geometric Performance Primitives (GPP) for EDA is 25x Faster than Reference CPUs

The performance gain of computational geometry is one of the most challenging topics. Fixstars developed a GPU/CPU multi-core accelerated computational geometry engine, called the Geometric Performance Primitives (GPP). This enabled faster turnaround times of high-precision designs, tests and verifications by efficiently utilizing higher computational resources available. GPP for EDA can run up to 25x faster than reference CPUs with reduced memory footprint. Our client was able to retain perfect accuracy with 25x faster software acceleration.
