Terrascale Technologies, a developer of next-generation input/output (I/O) software, announced that it will have a major presence at next week's SC 2004 Conference. SC 2004, the international conference for high performance computing and communications, will be held Nov. 6-12 in Pittsburgh. Terrascale's TerraGrid software is the "glue" that binds together best-of-breed commodity servers, networks and Open Source software, enabling sustained application efficiency levels previously attainable only on expensive and proprietary monolithic platforms. TerraGrid-enabled solutions are ideally suited to data-intensive business and R&D operations. In addition to demonstrating TerraGrid in Terrascale's booth, 10 development partners will also be showcasing applications based on TerraGrid software. These companies are: NNSA/ASC, Dolphin, Myricom, Quadrics, Raytheon, StorCloud, TeamHPC, Mellanox, Voltaire and Western Scientific. "We are extremely pleased with the strong presence that our technology will have at SC 2004," said Gautham Sastri, president and CEO of Terrascale Technologies. "Many leading developers of supercomputing solutions have already adopted our software and the growth that we have experienced in the last year has been tremendous. Our objective remains to establish our technology as an industry standard. We look forward to successful collaborations with our existing partners and to the announcement of many new partnerships."
