The Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), a leading global change research institute, relies on Anaconda to empower its scientists in stewarding a brighter future. With over 100 Anaconda users across diverse scientific disciplines, PIK leverages Anaconda within its high-performance computing (HPC) cluster, ranked among the world's fastest supercomputers. Anaconda grants PIK scientists unprecedented freedom in software choices, versions, and environments, accelerating their model runs and ensuring scientific reproducibility. Ciaron Linstead, HPC Software Support Engineer at PIK, highlights how Anaconda allows system administrators to focus on performance optimization rather than building modules from scratch. Furthermore, practitioners across Python, C, C++, Fortran, and R benefit from Anaconda's fast and flexible package management, enabling quick environment creation, seamless sharing, and efficient utilization of cutting-edge tools like PyTorch for machine learning models. Anaconda is not just a tool; it's a vital enabler for PIK's critical work in climate impact and sustainable development.
