Swinburne Centre for Astrophysics Boosts Supercomputing Power With Dell High-Performance Computing Cluster Based on PowerEdge Servers, Dell Precision Workstations and Linux SuSe
Overview The Swinburne Centre for Astrophysics and Supercomputing (SCAS), is host to the second largest supercomputer in Australia. They wanted to increase the processing power of the supercomputing facility by 1000 percent. The challenge was to ensure the continued support of Linux and reduce the footprint of servers using the most cost-effective, reliable and scalable framework available. Swinburne implemented a high performance computing cluster technology solution with 90 rack-mounted Dell PowerEdge 2650 Dual Xeon servers, 30 Dell Dual Xeon Precision 530s. Migrate from a 64 bit proprietary operating system to a 32 bit Linux SuSe platform.
