Argonne awarded GraphStream, Inc. a contract that will help to make data analytics and visualization at this scale possible through the world's largest installation of NVIDIA Quadro® Plex S4 external graphics processing units (GPU). This new supercomputer installation, nicknamed Eureka, will allow researchers to explore and visualize the data they produce with Intrepid. The powerful installation will offer 104 dual quad core servers with 208 Quadro FX5600 GPUs in the S4s. "Using the NVIDIA Quadro Plex S4 visual computing system as the base graphics building block, Eureka will deliver a quantum leap in visual compute density, enabling breakthrough levels of productivity and capability in visualization and data analysis," said Craig Dunwoody, CEO of GraphStream. “We’re delighted to be working with our partner GraphStream on the early release of the NVIDIA Quadro® Plex S4 into this special project at Argonne National Labs,” said Jeff Medeiros, senior business development manager, PNY Technologies.
