Open Technologies were set by the hybrid supercomputer in own competence center

At the beginning of 2011 announced Open Technologies the beginning of sales of supercomputers under own ENTER brand based on GPU platforms of production of the American company NextIO. In these supercomputers along with normal processors from Intel or AMD NVIDIA Tesla GPU processors which joint work sharply increases performance of operation of the supercomputer are used. Within promotion of this direction the company in May of this year started the supercomputer intended for demonstration and testing of opportunities of hybrid architecture to the customers in the Competence center.

Creation of this supercomputer had before itself four main objectives:

• Demonstration and testing of high-performance computer systems based on GPU;
• Testing of performance of a hybrid cluster in different configurations on different tests and tasks for determination of an optimal configuration of the solution;
• Demonstration and testing of GPU-applications of customers and partners and also help in their adaptation and optimization for GPU calculations;
• Testing of software solutions on management of hybrid HPC-clusters, adaptation of software of management for hybrid clusters and training of specialists.

Peak capacity of the presented hybrid solution is 4.4 Tflops, and the reached performance on the Linpack test - 2 Tflops. In the future performance of a cluster will grow after adding of new computing nodes.

As the commercial director of the company told Open Technologies Shevchenko Grigory: "This supercomputer will allow our customers to feel more fully advantages of hybrid technologies on examples of testing of the software and also will allow to understand a difference in performance of tests based on standard settlement packets, such as MathLab, LabView, Ansys and others".
