From high-performance roots to exascale and beyond: How the Jülich Supercomputing Centre is integrating HPC, AI, and quantum

Built as a modular HPC platform, JUWELS set high marks for performance, flexibility, and efficiency, becoming one of Europe’s foremost HPC systems. JUPITER: Europe’s first exascale supercomputerThe centrepiece of JSC’s current strategy is JUPITER, Europe’s first exascale supercomputer – a system that is redefining scientific computing across the continent. The JUPITER AI Factory: Exascale for allOne of JSC’s most strategic innovations is the JUPITER AI Factory (JAIF) – an infrastructure layer that leverages JUPITER’s exascale capabilities to make them widely accessible. Quantum computing at JSC: JUNIQ and hybrid computingWhile HPC remains JSC’s core mission, the JSC is actively expanding into quantum technologies. Connecting HPC, AI, and quantum to tackle grand challengesAs computational science evolves, JSC’s mission continues to be ambitious and future-oriented.
