The system, named Frontera, will leverage IB to deliver high application performance, scalability and efficiency.

We are excited to collaborate with TACC to build one of the most powerful supercomputers in the world,” said Gilad Shainer, VP marketing, Mellanox. “The fast data speeds and the advanced In-Network Computing acceleration engines, make IB the highest performance and most efficient interconnect technology for high-performance computing, artificial intelligence, cloud and storage, among other applications. These interconnect advantages will take TACC to the next level of scaling user applications, and maximize their ROI.

Frontera will deliver approximately twice the performance compared to the current system at TACC, and is expected to be operational in early 2019. If installed today, Frontera would be ranked among the top 5 fastest supercomputers in the world.

IB is enabling us to build a very efficient, higher performance and scalable supercomputer that will serve our users’ needs for the next several years,” said Dan Stanzione, TACC executive director. “We appreciate the deep collaboration with Mellanox and look forward to see the new scientific discoveries Frontera will enable.
