Eurotech, a leading provider of special purpose computing platforms, today unveiled Aurora, a revolutionary supercomputer that sets the pace for performance and efficiency. Aurora is packed with the most advanced solutions, such as quad-core high performance Intel® Xeon® 5500 processors series, 100Gbps per node bandwidth capacity, programmable on-node acceleration, multi-level synchronization networks and direct liquid cooling. Aurora sets a new standard of excellence in high performance computing.

“The Aurora supercomputer breaks the rules by removing the bottlenecks that limit the performance, efficiency and scalability of traditional systems”, said Giampietro Tecchiolli, CTO and VP of Eurotech. “Its advanced technology permits unprecedented effective performance, sets a record for footprint reduction and radically cuts the total cost of ownership for installations of any size, with energy savings as high as 60%.”

“The Aurora project is the result of a multi-group effort and we are excited that the unique features of the Intel Xeon 5500 series processor have become the base for such an innovative supercomputer system architecture. The Intel Xeon 5500 series brings up the bar considerably by turning the chip into a intelligent, adaptable part of the server solution,” said Richard Dracott, general manager of Intel’s High Performance Computing Group.

Aurora takes full advantage of the latest high performance, power efficient Intel Xeon 5500 processors series.

The new generation processor is Intel’s most revolutionary server processor since the introduction of the Intel Pentium® Pro processor 14 years ago. It can automatically adjust to specified energy usage levels, speed-up data center transactions and customer database queries thanks to new features such as Intel Turbo Boost which increases system performance based on the user’s needs, and Integrated Power Gates that turn off unused cores to save electricity and reduce heat. In particular, Intel® Turbo Boost is a feature that allows the processor to operate at higher speeds if a workload needs it and as long the processor isn’t operating above its power and thermal limits. This allows the CPU to dynamically deliver additional performance above the base frequency if needed.

The Intel Xeon processor 5500 series also takes intelligent power to a new level with up to 15 automated operating states. These create significant improvements in chip power management by adjusting system power consumption based on real-time throughput and without sacrificing performance.

In addition, the user-friendly software environment is fully compatible with most existing HPC codes and tools, and requires minimal or no porting for near optimal performance. Extra acceleration is available using the integrated programmable accelerator.

Eurotech introduces the Unified Network Architecture™ (UNA) in Aurora, which offers dramatic advantages over conventional HPC systems by radically improving performance and feature set. At the same time, the UNA reduces the number of physical and logical layers for exceptionally low memory to memory latency.

In each node, the UNA integrates a 60Gbps switchless 3D torus, a 40Gbps switched Infiniband® network, three multilevel synchronization networks and a programmable network processor. User-programmable logic transparently enables the optimal routing of data packets and manages the multilevel synchronization networks, for seamless scalability up to multiple PetaFLOPS.

Another exciting innovation is the Aurora direct liquid cooling system, which eliminates vibrations and rotating parts while providing precise control over component temperature. By removing the typical sources of failure in traditional HPC systems – even the on-node storage is solid-state – and thanks to the embedded redundant design, Aurora is exceptionally reliable.

Aurora is one of the greenest HPC systems on the market: its efficient design is both light on the energy bill, eliminating the additional costs of traditional cooling, and also makes it possible to squeeze as much number crunching as possible from every Watt. Moreover, Aurora is environmentally conscious and so compact that even PetaFLOPS installations may be possible in existing locations, allowing a sustainable growth in performance and preservation of existing assets.

Come and see a live Aurora demo at ISC 09 (www.supercomp.de), Intel® Booth 430

ThinkGrid, provider of business IT on demand, today launches its cloud storage service for organisations that need to retain ever-increasing amounts of data, but lack the capital to invest in high-cost, on-site storage. Customers can now benefit from this enterprise-class data storage solution on a pay-as-you-go basis. The service is based on the Mezeo Cloud Storage Platform(TM) and offers a range of advantages, including back-up and disaster recovery as well as business collaboration. It can either be purchased as a standalone solution accessible from almost any device via an internet connection, including the iPhone and BlackBerry, or integrated with ThinkGrid’s full business IT on demand portfolio, which includes Hosted Desktop and Dynamic Server plans.
“Over recent years there has been a huge rise in the amount of digital information as individuals and businesses increase their dependence on IT. Similar to the way we use banks for keeping our hard earned cash, it’s becoming just as important to safeguard highly valuable data by keeping it stored in a secure, reliable location,” said David Pratt, COO at ThinkGrid. “At the same time, just like our money, we should be able to access this data whenever and wherever we need it. ThinkGrid Cloud Storage is designed to offer exactly this capability but without the pain of having to build and manage a complex infrastructure yourself. Businesses are free to focus on what they do best, confident in the knowledge that their IT is working in the background, helping them to stay efficient and competitive,” added Pratt.

The Mezeo Cloud Storage Platform(TM) is a highly secure platform offering SSL encryption of files for transfer and 256 bit AES encryption in storage, meeting or exceeding the encryption used by banks and online merchants. This enables files stored to ThinkGrid Cloud Storage to be securely accessed through a variety of mobile devices or web browsers and without the complexity of a Virtual Private Network (VPN) set-up. This has significant advantages for companies or individuals that need to share or collaborate on documents ranging from presentations to PDFs, web site graphics, photos, videos, music and more. More specifically, businesses that often find they have to collaborate on or send large files will find ThinkGrid Cloud Storage a faster and more effective approach than sending email attachments. As the entire service is delivered on a pay-as-you-go model, there is no need to invest upfront in an expensive storage solution that is not fully utilised from day one. Likewise, if storage needs drop, customers can reduce the amount of space required, and only pay for what they use.

Pratt continued: “For the vast majority of companies, it’s a necessity to effectively store or retrieve business data. There’s also an increasing need to share this data with a range of third parties, such as customers and partners, or even employees who work outside the office. With ThinkGrid Cloud Storage we are offering customers a new and more affordable model for storing and accessing data from anywhere and, most importantly, giving them the confidence that this valuable information remains fully protected. For businesses that are not yet ready to move their full IT infrastructure to our business IT on demand service, it also offers an ideal stepping stone to the Cloud.”

Customers that traditionally store data in-house can put their business at risk as a result of hardware failure or someone accidentally erasing or corrupting their high-value data. ThinkGrid Cloud Storage offers SMEs the ability to implement disaster recovery or business continuity to the same standard as large scale enterprises. The service is hosted in multiple data centres that run on a highly available, fully resilient and constantly mirrored Grid computing model. ThinkGrid uses enterprise-class hardware, which is constantly backed-up and managed by a team of specialists on a 24/7 basis. This ensures 99.99% availability even in the unlikely event of a disaster at one of its facilities.

Whether purchased as a stand-alone service or as a fully integrated solution with the existing business IT on demand offering, ThinkGrid Cloud Storage features also include:

– Hierarchical and Tag-based File Organisation: Offering ‘Library File’ views making it easy to search and retrieve files — Permission Management: Allows users to more effectively manage private and public shared data through ‘Role-based’ permission management and share expiration settings — Contact Import Tool: Users can quickly and easily share information with personal contacts by importing names from Plaxo, Outlook, Yahoo, Gmail, or a CSV file — Publishable URL: Generates public URL links that can be used to share information directly on forums, blogs and websites — Patented Online Recycle Container: For users that need to delete or restore files right from the web
