HDR InfiniBand Delivers Meteo France with
Leading Performance and Scalability, Accelerating Supercomputing
Compute and Storage Infrastructures to Deliver More Than Five Times
Higher Production Capacity
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 HDR InfiniBand has been selected by
Meteo France to accelerate two new large-scale supercomputers,
based on Atos’s latest BullSequana XH2000 technology. HDR
InfiniBand ConnectX®-6 adapters, Mellanox Quantum™ switches and
LinkX cables and transceivers will interconnect nearly 5000 Atos
BullSequana server blades and NetApp storage platforms, delivering
high throughput and extremely low latency connectivity. Meteo
France is the French national meteorological service, providing
weather forecasting services for many companies including
transport, agriculture, energy and others, as well as to a large
number of media channels and world-wide sporting and cultural
events.
“We have been using InfiniBand for many years to connect our
supercomputing platforms in the most efficient and scalable way,
enabling us to conduct high performance weather research and
forecasting simulations,” said Alain Beuraud, HPC project manager
at Meteo France. “We are excited to leverage the HDR InfiniBand
technology advantages, its In-Network Computing acceleration
engines, extremely low latency, and advanced routing capabilities
to empower our next supercomputing platforms. We look forward to
continuing work with Mellanox, and to delivering leading weather
services to our customers in France and world-wide.”
“The performance advantages of HDR InfiniBand and the standard
guarantee of backward- and forward-compatibility ensure leading
performance and scalability for compute and data intensive
applications, and enable our users to protect their data center
investments,” said Gilad Shainer, senior vice president of
marketing at Mellanox Technologies. “We are proud to collaborate
with Atos and Meteo France to build the new supercomputing
platforms.”
The two new supercomputers will offer a 5.6 times compute power
speedup, compared to Meteo France’s existing platforms. The
BullSequana XH2000 is a highly energy-efficient platform utilizing
its patented water-cooled DLC (Direct Liquid Cooling) solution,
which minimizes global energy consumption by using warm water up to
40°C.
