Ever wonder how the chips in your phones, TVs, cars and appliances are made? Well, a lot goes into those and in this episode, NetApp's resident Electronic Design Automation expert Michael Johnson tells us about the processes, challenges and basics of the EDA chip manufacturing industry.

Episode 382 - Electronic Design Automation 101

Electronic Design Automation (EDA) is the industry that powers the innovations to technology we utilize everyday by making smaller, more powerful microchips for use in our cell phones, smart devices, self-driving cars, laptops and more.

EDA requires a massive amount of compute and storage at a rapidly growing scale that most datacenters simply cannot keep up with in a cost effective manner. Usually, by the time a new datacenter is finished, it's already too small. That is why more and more EDA vendors and chip makers are turning to the cloud for their workflows.

Microsoft's Global Black Belt for EDA - Andy Chan - and NetApp's EDA expert Michael Johnson, join us to discuss how Azure NetApp Files is an ideal solution for EDA workloads.
