Azure Partner Roundup: Photonics; Virtual desktops; Purview

TSMC teams up with Microsoft for photonic simulations, ControlUp and Nerdio join forces to improve Virtual Desktop adoption, and Reltio integrates with Microsoft Purview.

TSMC teams up with Microsoft for photonic simulations

Major semiconductor company, TSMC, teamed up with Ansys and Microsoft to accelerate simulation and analysis for silicon photonic components. Using Microsoft Azure NC A100v4-series VMs with NVIDIA computing running on Azure AI infrastructure, the companies achieved a 10 fold increase in the speed of Ansys Lumerical FDTD photonics simulations. 

Currently, silicon PIC, a type of optical communication that allows data to move farther and faster is important for hyperscale datacenters and IoT apps. Because extreme precision is needed for successful results, this new approach is helpful to speed up simulations while maintaining precision. 

"The size and complexity of our multiphysics silicon solutions makes the process of simulating all possible parameter combinations challenging. This latest collaboration again highlights that Ansys effectively harnesses the latest cloud infrastructure and techniques to deliver powerful, predictively accurate solutions that produce results in a fraction of the time,” stated Stefan Rusu, head of silicon photonics system design at TSMC.
