Clusters & Supercomputing
One of the most widespread areas of growth for Linux is in the area of clusters and supercomputers, also known as high performance computing or HPC. It is now possible to harness vast amounts of computational power using properly designed HPC servers, and the NimbusOS which provides the means of interconnecting them and a series of basic switching devices. A Linux-based cluster or supercomputer can now do the work formerly reserved for a mainframe or a specialized minicomputer more cost effectively and in an expandable architecture.

Clusters and supercomputers offer greatly improved price/performance over other traditional options, but they require the expertise of engineers and architects familiar with this industry to understand, design, build and deploy.

Linux Labs knows the subtleties and complex relationships between the various hardware, software and interconnect options out of which these powerful machines are assembled. In all industries and fields, from educational institutions to government-funded research programs to biotechnology companies and military applications, no two Linux-based clusters or supercomputers are truly the same in terms of the job or jobs they will perform. Linux Labs works with clients to design, build and deliver complete, custom made solutions that are specific to their requirements and objectives. Starting with your initial specifications, project timeframe and budget, we will ensure that the best options and alternatives are considered, in order to create the cluster or supercomputer that best meets your needs. Linux Labs can be of further benefit to their client's in the areas of data center and power requirements as they have operated their own data center and network since the companies inception.
