Ansys is working more closely with Microsoft to give customers access to Ansys' simulation solutions and tools on the Microsoft Azure cloud-computing platform through a browser, no matter where they are. Through this partnership, customers will be able to take advantage of the cloud's scalability and cost savings, which will let them quickly add or remove computing resources as needed.
With Ansys Access on Microsoft Azure, customers will have better, more affordable HPC in the cloud to work on difficult engineering projects. The collaboration will also include adding Microsoft 365 features to the engineering simulation tools made by Ansys. This will make it easier for people to work together on designing products.
Shane Emswiler, senior vice president of products at Ansys, said, "Ansys Access on Microsoft Azure will enhance the development and design processes of our mutual customers through increased productivity, sharper workflows, and greater access to cloud-based CAE tools." He further added, "By pairing Ansys' industry-leading simulation solutions with Azure, customers can innovate at scale in a virtual environment without compromising design accuracy or product integrity."
