CS500 Configuration Options

  • Cray rackmount servers
  • Multiple interconnect options: 3D torus/fat tree, single/dual rail, QDR/FDR InfiniBand™, Intel® Omni-Path Architecture
  • Local hard drives in each server
  • Choice of network-attached file systems and parallel file systems
  • Server management options Flexible Computing Performance All HPC problems are not created equal. You need fast results and reliable computing tools matched to your workloads. That’s why we tailor the CS500™ cluster supercomputer to your requirements. The CS500 system is customizable, easy to manage, and based on industry standards. It can handle the broadest range of simula- tions and data-intensive workloads. And we’ll configure it to meet your needs. We optimize components and integrate them into a powerful high-performance compute environment that can scale to over 11,000 nodes and 60+ peak PF. Flexible node configurations fea- ture the latest processors and interconnect technology. Expertly engineered software simplifies system administration and maintenance. Designed for Your Workload We optimize industry-standard server nodes and components and pair them with a comprehensive software stack. What you get is a unified HPC system that excels at capacity- and data-intensive workloads. Select your chassis, blades, nodes, interconnect topology, stor - age, and system management capabilities — for a high-perfor - mance system designed, installed and supported by Cray super - computing experts. Reliable and Energy Efficient Reliability starts with careful board and component selection, test- ing and validation. We add multiple layers of redundancy and fault tolerance to boost your uptime. Your CS500 cluster has redundant power, cooling, management servers and networks, all with failover capabilities. Each system is backed by our team of experts. Options to increase energy savings include high-efficiency, load-balancing power supplies; liquid-cooled rack rear-door heat exchangers and chillers; and, for some configurations, a choice of power options that can reduce energy loss and total cost of ownership. Expert Cray Support We’re dedicated to delivering outstanding support for the users, organizations and businesses that depend on Cray technology. Mission-critical systems around the globe rely on our service teams for world-class support. Cray support engineers, field engineers and field analysts are experienced, highly trained, and backed by subject matter experts. We can program, install, troubleshoot, maintain and administer your system, and optimize your applications. Plus you get access to product support groups and in-house sys- tems to help wtih diagnostics.

The CS500 cluster supercomputer can be customized for multi - ple uses — from an all-purpose, massively parallel HPC system to a cluster optimized for hybrid compute- and data-intensive workloads. Each system has compute nodes, which run parallel MPI and OpenMP tasks with maximum efficiency, and management nodes, which provide I/O connectivity, function as login nodes, and can be configured for unique workloads requiring large memory configurations. Cray rackmount servers are highly configurable in an HPC- optimized, industry-standard package. Each configuration can be replicated to create a reliable and powerful large-scale system. Comprehensive HPC & Deep Learning Environment Our complete software environment lets you develop and optimize applications and efficiently monitor system resources. The CS500 system’s customizable software stack is compatible with most open-source and commercial applications. It includes key Cray-authored components, popular open-source software, and industry-leading applications from Cray partners. The software stack includes:

  • Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® or CentOS
  • The Cray Programming Environment, a complete, fully integrated suite of HPC-optimized compilers, libraries and tools for programming, debugging, performance analysis, workload management, environment setup and more
  • Your choice of Bright Cluster Manager for HPC or Cray’s Advanced Cluster Engine (ACE) for system management
  • Bright for Deep Learning, a comprehensive deep learning environment that includes a choice of machine learning frameworks including Caffe, Torch, Tensorflow, and Theano; and machine learning libraries including MLPython, NVIDIA CUDA Deep Neural Network library (cuDNN), Deep Learning GPU Training System (DIGITS), and CaffeOnSpark AMD EPYC™ Balanced Architecture for Optimum Performance With up to 64 cores, 4 TB of memory, and 128 lanes of PCIe® connectivity, 2-socket servers built with the AMD EPYC SoC have the flexibility, performance and security to efficiently support the most demanding workloads.
