As high performance computing architecture evolves to deliver ever-increasing performance, the middleware tools also need to adapt in order for applications to better use these higher-performance features. Here, the Adaptable Input Output System (ADIOS), which provides scalable IO performance for exascale HPC applications is one such middleware. During the Exascale Computing Project (ECP), key portions of the ADIOS environment were adapted to respond to ongoing developments in exascale computing and the stresses and opportunities inherent in those changes. This paper examines those changes and where appropriate compares them to pre-exascale implementations.
