The next era of supercomputing

Competitive advantage in the exascale era relies on the power of data unlocked by supercomputing-powered modeling and simulation and AI. HPE Cray XD and EX supercomputers are designed to deliver exascale technologies to unlock the next frontier of discovery, innovation and achievement.

HPE Cray – Supercomputing for the exascale era

Today’s science, technology, and big data questions are bigger, more complex, and more urgent than ever. Answering them demands an entirely new approach to computing -- and HPE Cray supercomputer are up to the challenge. We’re introducing revolutionary capabilities for revolutionary questions, and HPE Cray systems are the foundational building blocks for scientists and researchers around the world.

Flexibility for today and tomorrow

As your workloads rapidly evolve, the ability to choose your architecture becomes critical. With HPE Cray supercomputing, you can incorporate multiple silicon processing choices—or a heterogeneous mix—with a single management and application development infrastructure. Flex from single to multi-socket nodes, GPUs, FPGAs, and other processing options that may emerge, such as AI-specialized accelerators.

Exascale computing era networking

HPE Slingshot is our high-speed, purpose-built supercomputing interconnect. It features Ethernet capability, advanced adaptive routing, unique congestion control, and sophisticated quality-of-service capabilities. Support for both IP-routed and remote memory operations broaden the range of applications beyond traditional modeling and simulation.

Fast, intelligent storage

HPE’s high performance computing storage is as well suited for the unique storage demands of AI as traditional all-flash enterprise file storage and is as scalable and cost effective as traditional parallel storage.
