Case Study: Appro Assists LLNL with Cluster Designed for Extreme Scale Visualization

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is home to some of the fastest computers in the world. In 2012, LLNL expects to have the Sequoia supercomputing cluster operational with a projected performance of over 20 PFLOP/s. These systems will focus on strengthening the foundations of predictive simulation through running large suites of complex simulations and then comparing model predictions with experimental data. To visualize this project’s large amount of data, LLNL requested an Appro Supercomputing Cluster specifically designed to support interactive data analysis. Please click here to read the case study.
