Article title: SUSELinuxEnterprise applies to 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.
At present, global supercomputers are running on Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. TOP500 is a project that tracks and detects high-performance computing trends. based on the data provided by TOP500, SUSE Linux Enterprise is the preferred Linux version for the world's largest high-performance computing (HPC) supercomputer. Among the top 50 super computers in the world, 40% run on SUSE Linux Enterprise, including three of them? IBM eServer Blue Gene at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, IBM eServer BlueGene/P (JUGENE) at the Juelich Research Center, and SGI Altix 8200 at the New Mexico Computing Application Center.
Using open-source and low-cost hardware, Novell, together with its partners, is bringing the same high-performance computing capabilities used by supercomputer to intermediate market customers in enterprises and various industries, these include manufacturing, research, and academic institutions. Customers such as Audi, MTU Aero Engine, NASA Advanced Supercomputing Department, Porsche Informatik, Seoul National University, Australia's swavburn University of Science and Technology, Tokyo Institute of Science and Technology, and Wehmeyer are all in SUSE run the supercomputer and computer cluster on the Linux Enterprise Server, handle critical business workloads with minimal downtime.
Currently, three supercomputers of the Advanced Supercomputing Department of NASA run on Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise. These computers are used to evaluate next-generation technologies to meet NASA's Engineering and Scientific requirements, control system operations and launch projects, and to support NASA's Aviation, scientific, and spatial operation initiatives. The next generation of supercomputers planned to be completed by NASA this summer will also run on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server. After deployment, it will be one of the largest SGI Altix ICE systems, comparable to the most powerful supercomputer in the third ranking.
"At NASA, we are working to solve some of the most complex scientific challenges, so it is very important to have a set of operating systems that can help us achieve the highest level of computing capabilities ." William Thigpen, director of the Engineering Division of NASA's Advanced Supercomputing Department, said. "When selecting an operating system, performance and flexibility are our two most important aspects. An appropriate operating system can help us advance the boundaries of computing performance and bring a higher level of innovation to our space, science, and aviation projects ."
