AI and Deep Learning Come to Wall Street

An HPE keynote session at this year's HPC on Wall Street event was geared to helping financial firms dip their toe into emergent technologies such as AI and deep learning. Today's financial services companies must continually strive to gain a competitive edge in a highly data-intensive industry. With the emergence of big data, firms are struggling to manage the onslaught of complex data from many sources, stay on top of evolving regulations, and boost data security. High performance computing (HPC) technologies are not only helping financial firms ease the pains associated with explosive data growth, but they are also becoming absolutely essential to survival. Emergent technologies and new HPC innovations to hit the financial sector were the focus of the 14th annual HPC on Wall Street event held earlier this week in New York City.
