  HiPerServ8000: 7U 80 Core IntelŽ XeonŽ Based HPC Systems Server  
 


80 Cores, 640 GB RAM, One OS
 

"Unique 80 core x86 SMP System"

HiPerServ 8000 is a high performance, cost effective x86 SMP solution built on industry standard components. Featuring the latest Intel Xeon quad core processors, this system can be configured from a minimum of 8 cores, all the way up to 80 cores.

Based on the revolutionary vSMP architecture, HiPerServ8000 circumvents the limitations and bottlenecks of the traditional x86 SMP and clustering architectures. vSMP provides affordable large SMP configurations with out the added costs. HiPerServ8000 extends the SMP architecture across multiple systems using hardware aggregation techniques, thus presenting a single system image to the operating  system and the users.

HiPerServ8000 is ideally suited for applications that need large number of processing cores or huge memory configuration or both. The system can be customized as per the processing power and/or memory requirements. Applications and operating systems can be used as-is with no modifications. HPC Systems, Inc. will provide optimized Linux kernels for enhanced performance and assist in application porting and optimization. Contact us for performance metrics.
