Novell provides SUSELinux server for the supercomputer

Article title: Novell provides the SUSELinux server for the supercomputer. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

According to an external report, Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise Server has been adopted by multiple super computer teams around the world. it is displayed based on the top project data that specifically tracks and detects high-performance computing trends, SUSE Linux Enterprise is currently used by large-scale high-performance computing (HPC) supercomputers.

Novell pointed out that 40% of the world's top 50 supercomputers use SUSE Linux Enterprise, including IBM eServer Blue Gene developed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in the United States; IBM eServer BlueGene/P (JUGENE) at Juelich Research Center; SGI Altix 8200, under the New Mexico Computing Applications Center (NMCAC.

Currently, three groups of supercomputers in the Advanced Supercomputing Department of NASA use Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise. the main functions of these computers are to assess whether new technologies meet NASA's Engineering and Scientific needs, control system operation and launch plans; it also supports NASA's projects in the aerospace, scientific, and space operations fields. NASA's latest supercomputer planned to be completed this summer will also adopt SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, which will become one of the largest SGI Altix ICE systems after deployment, it is equally different from the world's third-ranked supercomputer.

In addition, including Appro International, Atipa Technologies, Cluster Resources, HP, Penguin Computing, SGI and Teradata, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server is integrated into the high-performance computing solutions they provide to customers.

Michael A. Jackson, president of Cluster Resources, pointed out that the company has supported A dynamic hybrid OS Cluster thanks to Novell's interoperability with Microsoft. This next-generation solution allows a single cluster to mix SUSE Linux Enterprise with Windows, and dynamically change the OS mix based on the work content sent out.
