Mellanox en Pacific Northwest National Laboratory kondigen samenwerking voor Exascale-systeem aan
FRANKFURT, Duitsland–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Mellanox Technologies, Ltd., een toonaangevende aanbieder van hoogwaardige, complete tussenkoppelingen voor datacenters en opslagsystemen, heeft vandaag een technologiesamenwerking met het Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) aangekondigd. De twee partijen ontwerpen en verkennen technologieën voor toekomstige Exascale-platforms. Uit hoofde van de overeenkomst kijken ze naar de geavanceerde capaciteiten van onderling gekoppelde Mellanox-technologie, waarbij ze zich richten op een nieuwe generatie van computerarchitectuur binnen een netwerk en de vereisten voor laboratoriumgebruik. De samenwerking stelt het DOE-lab, via zijn Center for Advanced Technology Evaluation (bekend als CENATE), en Mellanox in staat nieuwe nieuwe synergieën tussen software en hardware te onderzoeken, die computerprestaties naar een hoger niveau tillen.
Mellanox and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Announce Joint Collaboration to Design Exascale System
FRANKFURT, Germany–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MLNX), a leading supplier of high-performance, end-to-end interconnect solutions for data center servers and storage systems today announced a joint technology collaboration with Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) to architect, design and explore technologies for future Exascale platforms. The agreement will explore the advanced capabilities of Mellanox interconnect technology while focusing on a new generation of in-network computing architecture and the laboratory application requirements. This collaboration will also enable the DOE lab, through its Center for Advanced Technology Evaluation (known as CENATE), and Mellanox to effectively explore new software and hardware synergies that can drive high performance computing to the next level.
“Mellanox has a long and successful history of developing industry-leading technology that enables the world fastest supercomputers,” said Gilad Shainer, vice president of marketing at Mellanox. “Our collaboration with PNNL will result in enabling an Exascale-grade system and provide the most efficient platform to enhance research and future product development.”
Today, scalable compute and storage systems suffer from data bottlenecks that limit research, product development and constrain application services. The Mellanox PNNL collaboration includes guiding the development of an InfiniBand-based Exascale system to support the DOE’s research needs as well as initiatives to develop, advance and establish critical new technologies that promote standards enabling and supporting the thousand-fold increase in performance required to introduce an Exaflop-capable system.
