In any kind of normal timeline this would have been stopped by regulators. Instead we let a single company become the sole gatekeeper for everything in #HPC .
SchedMD are the makers of #slurm , the (only) Open Source cluster scheduler, and used by a large majority of cluster computers. Nvidia bought Mellanox a few years ago, the maker of Infiniband, the main network technology for clusters.
