Seatle, CA (PRWEB) November 14, 2011
Appro (http://www.appro.com), a leading provider of supercomputing options, announced these days the style support for 2- and 4-processor up coming generation server platforms based mostly on the new AMD Opteron 6200 Series processors providing up to 16 core configurations enabling clients to pick the correct balance of clock speed and core count, completely matching their HPC applications. This upgrade delivers improved performance, scalability, effectiveness and value over prior offerings whilst preserving platform consistency that scales for memory- and compute-intensive HPC workloads. The subsequent generation Appro server platforms based mostly on the AMD Opteron 6200 Series processor are projected to be obtainable in Q4/2011 and early Q1 2012. Also, Appro will be demonstrating its up coming generation AMD Opteron based mostly servers and supercomputers at SC11 booth # 2312, November 14-17.
The new AMD Opteron-based mostly Appro servers will characteristic eight-, twelve- and 16- core-density providing 160 % a lot more cores than latest generation servers for handling more threads per node. It delivers 4 channels of DDR3 memory with the assistance of added Northbridge enhancements for 73 % a lot more memory throughput to scale as workloads develop. The new upgraded Appro server platforms will take advantage of AMDs revolutionary Flex FP style that brings 256-bit floating point processing to the mainstream with much more throughput for each 128-bit and 256-bit technical applications. Also, the new AMD Opteron processors offer you Turbo CORE technology permitting the Bulldozer cores to increase performance up to 500MHz simultaneously. In addition, the new Appro server platforms can assist firms get far more out of their IT investment by preserving server platform consistency from the entry-level to sophisticated HPC mission essential applications, enabling drop-in upgradeability for the up coming-generation AMD core.
We are pleased to take advantage of todays newly launched AMD Opteron 6200 Series processors that will be the foundation of Appros subsequent generation supercomputer creating block server platforms explained John Lee, vice president of Advanced Technologies Answers Group at Appro. These upgraded server platforms will provide a robust HPC worth proposition by bringing higher thread density, more rapidly memory throughput and power efficiency to tackle more substantial study tasks quicker and far more efficiently.
AMD and Appro collaborate to deliver HPC remedies that maximize technique efficiency-per-watt with enhanced memory bandwidth while continuing to push the envelope for scalability, explained Paul Struhsaker, corporate vice president and standard manager, Industrial Company at AMD. The AMD Opteron 6200 Series processors are created to take care of crucial workloads without having compromising efficiency, scalability or energy efficiency for the HPC market place.
