In The NewsLustre News Archive Oak Ridge National Laboratory (09 Jul 2009)Spider, the world's biggest Lustre-based, centerwide file system, has been fully tested to support Oak Ridge National Laboratory's (ORNL's) new petascale Cray XT4/XT5 Jaguar supercomputer and is now offering early access to scientists. Read the ORNL Workshop Highlights Spider Up and Spinning Connections to All Computing Platforms at ORN (09 Jul 2009)Spider, the world's biggest Lustre-based, centerwide file system, has been fully tested to support Oak Ridge National Laboratory's (ORNL's) new petascale Cray XT4/XT5 Jaguar supercomputer and is now offering early access to scientists. An extremely high-performance file system, Spider has 10.7 petabytes of disk space and can move data at more than 240 gigabytes a second. Powerful Microscope Facilitates Life Science Research (06 Jul 2009)Advanced computing resources and scientific computing applications provided by Indiana University are now exploiting the potential of a powerful new electron microscope that may help scientists make breakthroughs in the study of viruses and other life science applications. Two supercomputers from Jülich among the ten fastest in the world (23 Jun 2009)On May 26, 2009, the Research Center Jülich reached a significant milestone of German and European supercomputing with the inauguration of two new supercomputers: the supercomputer JUROPA and the fusion machine HPC-FF. Read the Case Study Sun To Deploy South Africa's Largest Supercomputer (16 Mar 2009)Sun Microsystems, Inc. today announced it has initiated the rollout of South Africa's largest high performance computing solution at the Centre for High Performance Computing (CHPC) in Cape Town, with local partners Eclipse Networks and Breakpoint Solutions. Sandia National Laboratories (05 Feb 2009)Sandia National Labs is very excited to be one of the first customers for the new Sun Blade X6275 and Sun Blade 6048 InfiniBand QDR Switched Network Express Module. In addition, we will also be implementing the Lustre parallel file system to meet our stringent IO bandwidth requirements. We anticipate that the new high performance capacity computing systems we are developing in partnership with Sun will provide us a tremendous increase in our space, power and cost efficiency. Dr. Robert W. Leland, Director, Computing and Network Services Center, Sandia National Laboratories "Despereaux" Posed Steep Challenge for Clustered Storage System (19 Dec 2008)The post-production studio, Framestore, that handled animation for the movie The Tale of Despereaux used Lustre file system from Sun Microsystems Inc. to store and manage data. During work on the move, the amount of data produced quadrupled to 200 TB.
