Scalable Systems & Servers

To meet large system requirements, SRC offers both SRC-7 and SRC-6 scalable systems which feature MAP® processors, microprocessors with the SNAP interconnect, as well as Common Memory nodes. These systems are housed in SRC’s standard 19-inch 35U racks which include system console, tower management system and gigabit ethernet switch, leaving 28U available for customer-selected nodes.

 

Scalable systems users now have a choice of which microprocessor best suits their needs: Intel EM64T microprocessors or AMD's Opteron processors. Opteron processors are being offered under AMD's Torrenza Initiative. All AMD-based systems will still use SRC's SNAP high performance commodity processor interface and will be software compatible with all other SRC systems.

 

Features & Benefits

  • Utilizing IMPLICIT+EXPLICIT™ Architecture, SRC’s scalable systems deliver orders of magnitude more performance per processor than current high performance microprocessors
  • Reduced power, cooling and support costs
  • Programmer-friendly Carte™ Programming Environment
  • A variety of configurations including:
    • Clusters - offering scalability and flexibility; system size is determined by clustering technology
    • Hi-Bar® Switch Network - providing low latency and high bandwidth supporting thousands of nodes
    • Hi-Bar Switch Network with Common Memory - allowing for additional capability of managed data movement
    • Hi-Bar Disk Storage – provides terabytes of storage with multi-gigabytes/s of bandwidth with the ease of use of Common Memory
