National Research Nuclear University of NIYaU MEPhI

The submersible cluster of Shanks was created by Immers company together with the INFORMATION RETRIEVAL SYSTEM of RAS by request of NIYaU MEPhI. In general the computer system includes 20 nodes which peak capacity reaches 16.4 Tflops. Computing nodes, in turn, are integrated by high-speed network InfiniBand with capacity of 56 GB / with, the Mellanox company organized using network solutions.

In each node it is set on processor Intel Xeon E5 2 - 2630V3. Storage it is capable to contain 50 TB information. In construction the relevant requirement of energy efficiency is also considered: 6.4 kW of power consumption are spent with coefficient of PUE no more than 1.05.

Noise from the working cluster due to the lack of fans does not exceed 50 DB, at the same time the hermetic liquid system of cooling did not demand purchase of additional conditioners and necessary expansion of infrastructure of DPC.
