Sun Fire Visual Grid System
Sun Fire Visual Grid systems represent a new approach that combines the
resources and capabilities of multiple Sun Fire servers into a
tightly-integrated and unified high-performance visualization system.
These flexible systems scale in all dimensions-processors, memory,
storage, and displays to deliver the capacity needed for the most
challenging computational problems with some of the industry's best
dynamic visual quality.
Sun Fire V1280 Server
The Sun Fire V1280 server attacks the cost of computing by providing high performance and advanced reliability features in a rack-optimized form factor. Designed to simplify IT maintenance, increase system uptime, and relieve applications constrained by Windows limitations, the Sun Fire V1280 server offers enterprise-class features with up to 12 UltraSPARC® III processors, up to 96GB of memory, and hot-swappable CPU/memory boards enabled by Sun's proven Dynamic Reconfiguration (DR) technology. This high performance server also features two Gigabit Ethernet ports and a 9.6 GBps system interconnect for compute-intensive and I/O-demanding applications such as database and Web serving.
High Performance Technical Computing (HPTC) Solutions
Whether in molecular modeling computational fluid dynamics weather forecasting crash analysis petroleum exploration mechanical simulation life sciences research or the hundreds of other high-return HPTC applications you need a robust flexible infrastructure. It must scale horizontally and vertically to provide maximum compute power and maximum data flow all the way from the R&D phase through production. You also need to prepare for the future by laying the groundwork for a Web-based Grid
Computing model. Sun's HPTC Solutions are effective serviceable tools for advancing the four major functions of the technical computing process: access computation data management/storage and results visualization.
Grid Engine Portal: Helping Make Information and Applications Accessible
Increased network bandwidth,more powerful computers,and the acceptance of the Internet have driven an on-going demand for new and better ways to utilize high performance and technical computing (HPTC) resources. Enterprises, academic institutions, and research organizations alike continue to take advantage of these advancements, and constantly seek new technologies and practices that enable them to reinvent the way they work. However, many challenges remain - reduced development costs, faster time-to-market, greater throughput, and improved quality and innovation are always foremost in the minds of administrators - at the same time, computational needs outpace the ability of organizations to deploy sufficient resources to meet growing workload demands.
Storage Area Network for High Performance Computing: Optimizing Data Movement
Storage Area Networks (SANs) have emerged to help organizations solve the problems of managing large pools of data. Sun HPC SAN introduces a cost-effective, pre-integrated solution that delivers the advantages of SAN technology at the performance levels rivaling those of traditional, dedicated server-attached storage architectures. With Sun HPC, HPTC users can run multiple queries concurrently, reduce costly and time-consuming data migrations, minimize data redundancy, and provide greater flexibility in designing your technical computing environment. Learn how Sun HPC SAN can improve the management of data on which your HPTC applications depend.
Sun Fire 15K Server for HPC
Sun's largest server, the Sun Fire 15K, supports up to 106 UltraSPARC III processors in an SMP architecture. With its large memory, triple-redundant high-bandwidth interconnects, and the Solaris multithreaded Operating Environment, the Sun Fire 15K server is an ideal platform for large-scale, HPTC applications. Learn how the Sun Fire 15K server can help your organization apply new power to your technical computing applications.
