Fueling Scientific Discovery with xFusion: PSNC's Quantum Leap in HPC Capabilities
The European Union recognizes the critical role of HPC in addressing fundamental scientific, industrial, and societal challenges, such as climate change, environmental protection, and population aging. Poznan Supercomputing and Networking Center (PSNC), established in 1993 under the Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences, has been at the forefront of HPC advancements, procuring and implementing cutting-edge HPC data storage systems as part of the National Data Storage (NDS).
To bolster its competitive edge in HPC across Poland and Europe, PSNC has partnered with xFusion and its comprehensive HPC solutions. At the core of the solution is the FusionServer, combined with NDR IB switches, which employ state-of-the-art technology for cluster refactoring. The solution addresses practical challenges, such as unified cluster management, job scheduling, and cluster monitoring.
“We conducted a test of the infrastructure and technology provided by xFusion using the IO500 benchmark. xFusion is at the top of the list, demonstrating that it is one of the most efficient data center infrastructures worldwide.”
