Telly Awards in recognition for its visual campaign production of a promotional video highlighting its high-performance computing workload management solution,

video for PBS Professional in an effort to share with potential customers the key benefits of its software solutions and high-performance computing in action. The video includes interviews with key executives from PBS Works as well as testimonials from PBS Professional users. The video was produced in partnership with
