World-class, high performance computing (HPC) used to
be the reserved for large research centers. No Longer! The Cray CX1 deskside
super computer makes HPC performance available to everyone, even the smallest of
shops. It combines the power of a high performance computing cluster with the
affordability, ease-of-use and seamless integration of a workstation.
If you have challenging engineering, designs, cpu
intensive applications then you may want to explore the possibilities of this
machine.The Cray CX1 deskside personal supercomputer is the "right size" in
performance, functionality, and cost for individuals and departmental workgroups
who want to harness HPC without the complexity of traditional clusters.
Equipped with Intel Xeon processors and integrated
with your choice of Windows HPC Server 2008, Linux-based Rocks+ (Intel Cluster
Ready), or Platform OCS (Intel Cluster Ready), the CX1 delivers the power of a
high performance cluster with the ease-of-use and seamless integration of a
workstation.
The CX1 deskside supercomputer is the ideal platform
for office and departmental computing, supporting diverse multiphysics
applications for complex engineering challenges, from computational fluid
dynamics and crash simulation to finite element analysis and modeling. These
applications support a diverse set of industries including aerospace and
automotive, and the industrial design and manufacturing of medical devices,
semiconductors, and consumer products.
Equipped with Xeon processors and state-of-the-art
visualization and storage capabilities, the CX1 supercomputer delivers
outstanding performance across a broad range of applications and standard
benchmarks. All this in a compact, deskside system that plugs into a standard
wall outlet. And, with an integrated Microsoft or Linux operating environment,
the CX1 supercomputer delivers true “ease of everything" computing, allowing any
user to apply HPC power to challenging science, engineering, and design
problems. Designed and priced for individuals and departmental workgroups, the
CX1 is simple to configure, deploy, administer and use. With the CX1
supercomputer, Cray takes the HPC cluster out of the data center and places it
next to your desk.
