[Beowulf] An Epyc move for Cray
For those who haven't seen, Cray has announced their new Shasta architecture for forthcoming systems like NERSC-9 (the replacement for Edison). https://www.hpcwire.com/2018/10/30/cray-unveils-shasta-lands-nersc-9-contract/ It's interesting as Cray have jumped back to using AMD CPUs (Epyc) alongside nVidia GPUs, in conjunction with a new interconnect (Slingshot). I've got to say that the name of the new NERSC system reminds me of people struggling to program in a particular scripting language.. ;-) -- Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC ___ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
