Bull Super Computer Suite 5
Bull supercomputer suite version Bull supercomputer suite version 5 is series based on the latest available 5, or SCS 5, introduces a new designed for every HPC need, from small technologies. It supports EDR InfiniBand approach to extreme computing supercomputers with just a few hundred with the MOFED stack and MPI accelerators cores to supercomputers with tens of MXM/FCA (both from Mellanox®), a complete software solutions. Bull SCS 5 thousands of nodes. It is cut out to reach development suite and Lustre (based on is a scalable, open, and robust performance targets of the order of up to the Intel® solution). All critical services are software suite that meets the 100 PFlops, based on new-generation CPUs configured to ensure High Availability. requirements of even the most and GPUs.
