Building the Future of High Performance Software

The High Performance Software Foundation (HPSF) is a neutral hub for open source high performance software.

HPSF supports projects that advance portable software for diverse hardware by increasing adoption, aiding community growth, and enabling development efforts. HPSF is lowering barriers to productive use of today’s and future high performance computing systems. HPSF is part of the nonprofit Linux Foundation.

Community-Driven Solutions for

  • Performance
  • Portability
  • Productivity

Why Now

AI and Accelerated Computing are Growing

AI has changed the compute landscape by normalizing number crunching and accelerated computing for the masses.

Cloud HPC is Growing

HPC is a growth area, and cloud users need a portable, production-ready software stack that can be sustained and advanced over time.

Leverage for Cloud and Secure Supply Chain

A unified foundation for High Performance Software allows us to work closely with other groups like CNCF (cloud) and OpenSSF (security).

The HPC Stack is Ready to Fill the Gap

Years of investment make the HPC stack fast, portable, and ready for production. To increase its reach, we need to let the world know.
