LSI 'to boost next-gen Linux'

20 Nov 2008

LSI is set to aid the development of next-generation Linux clusters after it has joined with computing experts at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to create a large-scale test bed for high-performance computing (HPC).

Indeed, the vendor has announced that another goal of the partnership is to make peta/quadrillion floating operation per second computing systems more affordable for organisations such as commercial research and governmental groups.

As such, the Hyperion Project also includes other technological providers, including, but not limited to, QLogic, while LSI delivered the Engenio 7900 HPC storage system, which has a capacity of over 384 terabytes of data.

Commenting on the alliance, Dave Ellis, director of HPC architecture at LSI, says: "Our participation in the project enables us to provide innovative, next-generation storage solutions to our HPC customers and original equipment manufacturers in substantially less time."

Meanwhile, the vendor has also recently announced that its Engenio 7900 HPC system has been enhanced to reduce enterprises' carbon footprints and power consumption For further information on LSI, click here.
