In computing,hyperscale is the ability of anarchitecture toscale appropriately as increased demand is added to the system.
This typically involves the ability to seamlessly provide and add compute, memory, networking, and storage resources to a given node or set of nodes that make up a largercomputing,distributed computing, orgrid computing environment. Hyperscale computing is necessary in order to build a robust and scalablecloud,big data,map reduce, ordistributed storage system and is often associated with the infrastructure required to run large distributed sites such asGoogle,Facebook,Twitter,Amazon,Microsoft,IBM Cloud,Oracle Cloud, orCloudflare.
Companies likeEricsson,AMD, andIntel provide hyperscale infrastructure kits for IT service providers.[1]
Companies likeScaleway,Switch,Alibaba,IBM, QTS,Neysa, Digital Realty Trust,Equinix,Oracle, Meta,Amazon Web Services,SAP,Microsoft,Google, andCloudflare build data centers for hyperscale computing.[2][3][4][5][6] Such companies are sometimes called "hyperscalers". They are recognized for their massive scale in cloud computing and data management, operating in environments that require extensive infrastructure to accommodate large-scale data processing and storage.[7]
