HP revolutionizes HPC, Supercomputing Market with New Portfolio

 HP has announced the HP Apollo family of high-performance computing (HPC) systems, capable of delivering up to four times the performance of standard rack servers while using less space and energy.

The new offerings reset data center expectations by combining an innovative modular design with breakthrough power distribution and cooling techniques. The HP Apollo 6000 System features a flexible rack design that provides a wide selection of adaptors and power redundancy, allowing organizations to optimize their systems for the specific needs of a wide variety of workloads, such as design automation or financial service risk analysis.

"Demand for HPC applications across industries is growing rapidly, and today's data centers are ill-equipped to handle the extensive space, power and infrastructure necessary to run the required level of processing power," said Stephen Bovis, Vice-President & General Manager, HP Servers, Asia-Pacific and Japan.

The HP Apollo 6000 and the HP Apollo 8000 are available for order from HP and channel partners immediately. Pricing is available upon request.
