HARDWARE

The main supercomputer consists of a series of IBM BlueGene/L systems which contain a total of 32,768 PowerPC 440 700 MHz processors. In addition there is also a heterogeneous array of Power-based Linux machines and AMD Opteron processor-based clusters running on a common file system with the main supercomputer. Together, these systems will create over 100 TeraFLOPS of computational power with associated high-speed networking and storage. The CCNI connects to the Rensselaer Troy campus and the NYSERNet optical research infrastructure, enabling gigabit/second connections to the Internet and Internet2 , National LambdaRail (NLR), and most of the research networks in the world through the Peering Point on 32 Avenue of the Americas.
