This is what's next:

That's a big win for IBM/NVIDIA (well actually two: ORNL's Summit and
LLNL's Sierra), and kind of tough for Intel: no x86, and no Lustre.
Cheers,
I've been waiting for an announcement like this since the IBM+NVidia
alliance was announced last year. I think it's going to be Intel vs.
IBM/NVidia in the HPC race for the foreseeable future, but I'm hoping
ARM jumps in in the next couple of years to keep it interesting for us
spectators.
I think what's really amazing is how much smaller the system will be in
terms of actual nodes and FLOPS vs. Watts (based on the data comparing
Sierra to Titan).
