Netweb Technologies has deployed supercomputer at Centre for Development of Advanced Computing C-DAC, Pune.
It is the next-generation PARAM System, which is an upgrade of the existing PARAM Yuva system. This system consists of 224 Intel based Tyrone servers having Intel’s latest Xeon Sandy Bridge Processors & Xeon Phi co-processors, with over 30000 processing cores including coprocessors and total 14 TB of memory.
Pradeep K Sinha, Sr. Director, HPC, C-DAC, India said, “The upgraded PARAM Yuva installed at C-DAC, Pune by Netweb Technologies is based on Intel Xeon Phi Many Integrated Core architecture co-processors, and has become the most powerful supercomputer for India’s scientific community with theoretical peak performance that exceeds half Petaflops. This will pave the way for a wide range of achievements in science and technology for India. I would also like to express our full satisfaction and admiration for Netweb Technologies that completed the project in record time.”
Sanjay Lodha, CEO, Netweb Technologies said, “The system is the first installation in India with Tyrone Servers and Intel Xeon Phi, a debut product from Intel.” He thanked the C-DAC team for their support during the project execution and said, “The project was implemented in a record time and that would not have been possible without the support from entire C-DAC, Intel and Mellanox teams.”
