Integrated Virtual SMP Solutions

A Virtual Shared Memory System based on ScaleMP vSMP Foundation

Enter high-end server virtualization. Datatrend, collaborating with IBM and ScaleMP, is pleased to present a fully integrated Virtual SMP Solution built upon a new virtualization paradigm. Multiple, commodity x86 systems are aggregated into a single virtual x86 system through ScaleMP's unique virtualization technology, resulting in a low-cost, industry-standard, software-based SMP system with the computational horsepower needed for the most demanding applications and workloads.

The solution scales up to 128 nodes; 8192 Cores; 16,384 threads; and 64TB RAM... with up to 160 Gbps interconnect to each node... all on one single virtual machine (and single OS instance)!

An excellent solution for computational intensive applications, including financial and engineering analysis as well as electronic design automation, the Virtual SMP Solution is the most highly scalable system and offers a great alternative to SGI shared memory systems.

A fully integrated solution

Datatrend expertly integrates IBM's innovative BladeCenter server platform with ScaleMP's vSMP Foundation server virtualization software to create a true, out-of-the-box, HPC experience with unparalleled ease of use and economics. The result is a preconfigured, packaged Virtual SMP Solution.

• A packaged, preconfigured solution
• Built upon ScaleMP's innovative, software-based virtualization technology
• Powered by the IBM BladeCenter platform (or EX5 / iDataPlex for large scale solutions)
• Provides hundreds or thousands of processing cores
• Up to 64TB of memory in a single system image
• Avoid the nightmares of application parallelization and cluster management
• Flexible use - dynamically reconfigure for normal production work when not running HPC jobs
