Stanford HPC Center Rocks with Intel Cluster Ready Solution

In just eleven days during 2007, the Stanford University High-Performance Computing (HPC) Center nearly doubled the performance of its existing compute system. The center leveraged certification methodology from the Intel Cluster Ready Program to fully implement a 1,696-core cluster solution. The solution integrates Clustercorp, Dell and Panasas technologies to give the center the flexibility to meet ever-expanding computational and application requirements and to enable Stanford researchers to achieve faster time-to-results. Steve Jones, the founder and manager of the Stanford HPC Center, writes about the design and deployment of this system.
