Research Computing Platforms
The current research computing cyberinfrastructure at the University of Louisville provides a variety of systems for use in computational research. Available systems include a general-purpose high-performance distributed-memory cluster, a high-memory SMP system which is also a statistics server, an informatics data management cluster, and a visualization server. All research systems are housed in the University's secure data center, administered by a team of specialized HPC system administrators, and supported by a team of research computing consultants. The cluster shares 100 TB of storage for home directories, software, and computing scratch space.Facts about the distributed-memory cluster:
- 312 IBM iDatplex nodes each with two Intel Xeon quad-core processors for 2496 total cores
- Each node has 16 GB or 32 GB memory
- Estimated peak performance of 20+ TFLOPS
The SMP system has:
- 16 IBM Power6 4.7GHz CPUs
- 128 GB memory
The informatics cluster contains 20+ TB of dedicated storage along with high-performance, high-reliability database servers and associated web and application servers.
