IBM's new computers may change how we process big data
IBM HQ. INT. DAY. An oppressive curtain of rain beats down against the window of this small meeting room in IBM's New York HQ. Two IBM scientists are engaging in excited conversation with a representative from the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY while a third IBM employee sits at one end, removed from the action, chewing their pen and staring out of the window. DOE REPRESENTATIVE: What do you mean $300 million won't get me the two supercomputers I need? SCIENTIST #1: You're generating too much data. There isn't enough bandwidth for it all to go through. DOE REPRESENTATIVE: I don't understand. You're the supercomputer company, make it happen!
