T-Systems Case Study: Flying High
T-Systems increases supercomputer-performance with Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 series
T-Systems, a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, is a large global provider of information and communications technology services spanning compute clients, data centers, and networks. Within these, T-Systems aimed to provide the Center for Computer Applications in AeroSpace Science and Engineering (C²A²S²E) – a joint-venture of the German Aerospace Center (DLR), Airbus, and the federal state of Niedersachsen (Lower Saxony) – with more processing power for their HPC code and design operations. However, this needed to be within the constraints of a fixed power budget. To meet these objectives, T-Systems has decided to implement a 648-node cluster powered by Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 series to replace its existing platform.
Challenges:
• Customer binding: T-Systems wants to improve its high-performance computing for two of its customers, DLR and Airbus, by offering greater performance and scalability.
• Power constraints: It had strict power consumption parameters that had to be met to ensure the total cost of the HPC service did not become too high.
Impact:
• New system: T-Systems has begun implementing a 648-node system powered by Intel Xeon processor 5600 series to replace its existing system.
• Customer satisfaction: Customers gain more performance and scalability for full virtual simulations.
Greater marketplace standing:
T-Systems assures its position as a full service provider in the HPC-market.
