The Global Oil and Gas Company Will Leverage
HDR InfiniBand Performance Advantages to Connect Most Efficiently a
52-Petaflop Compute Platform and a 15-Petabyte Storage System
SUPERCOMPUTING CONFERENCE – Mellanox® Technologies, Ltd.
(NASDAQ: MLNX), a leading supplier of high-performance, end-to-end
smart interconnect solutions for data center servers and storage
systems, today announced that 200 gigabit per second HDR InfiniBand
has been selected by Eni, a global energy company, to accelerate
HPC5 – the world’s most powerful industrial supercomputer. The HPC5
supercomputer will deliver three times higher performance compared
to the existing 100 gigabit EDR InfiniBand HCP4 supercomputer
platform. HPC5 will allow generating faster data analysis during
Eni operations, and will further accelerate Eni research and
development of non-fossil energy sources, as well as support
exploration, development and monitoring of oil fields during all
stages.
HPC5 will deliver 52-petaflop of computing performance utilizing
both CPUs and GPUs, and 15 petabyte of storage, all connected in a
full non-blocking 200 gigabit per second HDR InfiniBand topology to
ensure efficient and direct connection among every compute server
and storage system.
On Eni’s press release Claudio Descalzi, CEO of the company,
commented: “Our investment to strengthen our supercomputer
infrastructure and to develop proprietary technologies are a
crucial part of the digital transformation of Eni. Having great
computing power and sophisticated algorithms at our disposal makes
us leaders in the modern energy sector and projects us on to the
future. Eni is forging that future through a range of alternative
energy projects, and through a solid R&D investment plan. With
HPC5, we are entering the world of Exascale computing in the energy
sector, which will revolutionize company processes in the
future.”
“InfiniBand performance advantages have accelerated Eni
supercomputing platforms over the years, and we are excited to see
our HDR InfiniBand solutions empower the new supercomputing system,
enabling Eni with the world-leading industrial supercomputing
power,” said Amir Prescher, senior vice president of end-user sales
and business development at Mellanox Technologies. “Thanks to HDR
InfiniBand's interconnect leadership, its smart acceleration
engines for high performance, data intensive and deep learning
applications, and being a standard technology ensuring backward and
future compatibility, Eni is equipped with the capabilities to gain
further competitive advantage, and to build a supercomputing
infrastructure that serves their current and future needs.”
