Empowering Manufacturers to Harness Limitless Computational Power for Accelerated Product Development
Apexon is a digital-first technology services firm specializing in accelerating business transformation and delivering human-centric digital experiences. For over 20 years, Apexon has been meeting customers at every stage of their digital lifecycle and helping them outperform their competition through speed and innovation.
Our reputation is built on a comprehensive suite of engineering services, a dedication to solving our client’s toughest technology problems, and a commitment to continuous improvement. We focus on three broad areas of digital services: Experience, Digital Engineering, and Data. Apexon also possesses deep expertise in Automotive and Manufacturing.
In today’s manufacturing landscape, efficiency, precision, and innovation are paramount. High- Performance Computing (HPC) is transforming the way manufacturers approach Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) by delivering the computational power required to optimize processes, improve product designs, and drive industry leading advancements.
CAE simulation can be applied to model Finite Element Analysis (FEA) or Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) across a wide range of physical phenomena, including fluid flow, heat transfer, and structural mechanics. However, these simulations can incur high computational costs, especially when dealing with complex products and processes.

Apexon’s HPC services for manufacturers represents a comprehensive portfolio of offerings to lay the foundation for designing, building, and managing HPC (high performance computing) environments tailored to meet the requirements of Computer Aided Engineering (CAE). Our HPC services for engineering simulation encompass the following at high level:
Scalable Capacity:
Access to scalable capacity is important for improving agility and productivity, ensuring that you have the required resources available when you need them.
Global Collaboration:
A global infrastructure that fosters collaboration among geographically dispersed teams, allowing teams from different parts of the world to work together seamlessly.
Financial Flexibility:
The flexibility of a pay-as-you-go model enables you to align costs with actual usage, thereby optimizing your financial strategy.
Total Cost of Ownership:
Economies of scale lead to a decreased Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), enhancing cost-effectiveness in your operations and the improved Return of Investment (ROI).
HPC on AWS unlocks essentially unlimited amounts of computing power and data storage to solve the most complex problems quickly and enable them to run simulations at optimal scale. Well optimized and secured HPC clusters can be automatically created, operated and torn down in just minutes.
Data Transfer is an essential component of HPC. By leveraging Snowball, Snowmobile, AWS DataSync and Direct Connect, we facilitate transferring terabytes and petabytes of data from on premises to AWS.
HPC focuses on distributed computing to solve complex and larger problems quickly and efficiently. Apexon follows the AWS architecture best practices for Compute & HPC and takes advantage of AWS EC2 and Elastic Fabric Adapter to support and run HPC applications at scale.
AWS and Apexon can support sophisticated HPC systems that have streamlined storage components that efficiently and instantly send and receive data from the compute servers. For that, manufacturers can take advantage of EBS, Amazon S3, and Amazon FSx for Lustre.
Apexon can help customers run their HPC workloads using AWS ParallelCluster or AWS Batch. AWS Parallel Cluster allows you to easily deploy and manage High Performance Computing (HPC) clusters on AWS. AWS Batch, a cloud-native batch scheduler, allows you to scale hundreds of thousands of computing jobs across all AWS compute services and features.
