its focus on democratizing HPC for enterprises of all sizes,
optimizing HPC technology innovations and advancing the HPC
community.
“The global HPC market forecast exceeds $30 billion in 2016 for
all product and services spending, including servers, software,
storage, cloud, and other categories, with continued growth
expected at 5.2 percent CAGR through 2020,” said Addison Snell,
CEO, Intersect360 Research. “Bolstered by its combination with EMC,
Dell will hold the number-one position in total HPC revenue share
heading into 2017.”
Democratizing HPC to Extend Capabilities to Mainstream
Enterprises
As a global leader in high performance computing, Dell EMC
continues to bring HPC capabilities to mainstream enterprises,
announcing today:
- The Dell EMC HPC System for Life
Sciences will be available with the PowerEdge C6320p Server with
the Intel® Xeon Phi™ processor by early Q1 2017. This accelerates
results for bioinformatics centers to identify treatments in
clinically relevant timeframes while protecting confidential
data.
- New cloud bursting services from Cycle
Computing, enabling cloud orchestration and management, connecting
to the three largest public cloud services including Azure, AWS and
Google. This allows customers of all sizes to most efficiently
utilize their on-premises systems while seamlessly providing access
to the vast resources of the public cloud for HPC needs.
- Dell EMC will offer customers the
Intel® HPC Orchestrator this quarter to help simplify the
installation, management and ongoing maintenance of
high-performance computing systems. Intel® HPC Orchestrator, based
on the OpenHPC open source project, can help accelerate customers’
time to results and value in their HPC deployments.
Optimizing HPC Portfolio for Performance and
Efficiency
Dell EMC, as the global leader in server shipments, enterprise
storage and converged systems, offers a robust portfolio optimized
for HPC, available all in one place. New examples of innovative HPC
technology being demonstrated at SC16 this week include:
- Dell EMC PowerEdge C4130 and R730
servers are now available with NVIDIA® Tesla™ P100 accelerators,
designed to boost throughput and save money for HPC and hyperscale
data centers, advancing intensive deep learning applications and
applying artificial intelligence techniques to drive advances in
science.
- The University of Pisa is using the
Dell EMC PowerEdge C4130 servers, with NVIDIA Tesla P100
accelerators and NVIDIA Deep Learning GPU Training System (DIGITS),
for deep learning of DNA sequencing.
- Additions of Dell EMC Isilon, DSSD,
ScaleIO and Elastic Cloud Storage (ECS) to the expanded HPC
portfolio to further accelerate storage and cloud capabilities for
HPC customers.
Advancing the HPC Community, Enabling Customers to Accelerate
Pace of Innovation
MIT Lincoln Laboratory Supercomputing Center (LLSC) has selected
Dell EMC to install a 648-node HPC system through the Dell EMC
and Intel early access program for the Intel® Xeon Phi™ processor.
LLSC’s new “TX-Green” system, one of the largest of its kind on the
US East Coast, exceeds one petaflop and has provided the center
with a 4X computing capacity boost.
The new HPC system provides the LLSC’s researchers and
collaborators a dramatic increase in its interactive,
on-demand HPC and big data capabilities to enable research in
fields such as space observations, robotic vehicles, cyber
security, machine learning, sensor processing, electronic
devices, bioinformatics, and air traffic control.
Peking University has selected Dell EMC to install two HPC
clusters to further cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) cooperative
research with Harvard University. These clusters, with 144 nodes
and approximately two petabytes of storage with Intel EE Lustre,
will enable university researchers to map the three-dimensional
structure of biological macromolecules to design inhibitors and
develop new drugs to treat or cure patients of cancer and other
diseases.

Jim Ganthier, senior vice president, Validated Solutions and
HPC Organization, Dell EMC“Dell EMC is uniquely capable of
breaking through the barriers of data-centric HPC and navigating
new and varied workloads that are converging with big data and
cloud. We are collaborating with the HPC community, including our
customers, to advance and optimize HPC innovations while making
these capabilities easily accessible and deployable for
organizations and businesses of all sizes.”
Jeremy Kepner, MIT Lincoln Laboratory Fellow and head of the
Lincoln Laboratory Supercomputing Center“Dell EMC has been a
great partner in enabling us to dramatically increase the
capabilities of our supercomputing center. The Dell HPC team
was very knowledgeable and responsive and able to deliver, install,
and benchmark our Petaflop-scale system in less than a month. This
was a great example of a well-coordinated and
dedicated organization that was able to allocate the
appropriate resources to exceed customer expectations.”
Dr. Youdong “Jack” Mao, Assistant Professor of Biophysics,
Peking University“The HPC clusters from Dell EMC are critical
to our research missions that highly depend on the analysis of big
data generated from highly automated cryo-electron microscopes. The
HPC systems facilitate the development of state-of-the-art
algorithms in pursuit of structural solutions to those grand
biomedical problems, which would deliver innovations in cancer
immunotherapy and precision medicine.”
Jason Stowe, CEO, Cycle Computing“Hybrid solutions are
the future for HPC customers and teaming with Dell EMC to meet that
need is very exciting. The Dell EMC team clearly understands this
market and their customers. With their unique insight, we believe
our combined forces will deliver real value to customers, enabling
them to significantly reduce their queue times, instant access to
increased capacity when needed, and the ability to easily manage it
all.”
Charles Wuischpard, vice president, Data Center Group,
Intel“We’re entering an era where personalized medicine can
help to save and improve lives like never before. We continue to
collaborate with Dell on bringing Intel Scalable System Framework
based clusters to market, and the Dell EMC PowerEdge C6320p server,
based on Intel Xeon Phi processor, Intel® HPC Orchestrator, and
Intel Omni-path Architecture fabric, will help customers solve some
of the most important life science and deep learning
challenges.”
Ian Buck, vice president of accelerated computing,
NVIDIA“The NVIDIA Tesla P100 is the most powerful GPU
accelerator ever built for high performance computing, big data
analytics and artificial intelligence. We are working with Dell EMC
to target some of the world’s most complex visual computing
problems in life sciences, research, and A.I., and the PowerEdge
C4130 and R730 servers were built to supercharge these
applications.”
