el gato

El Gato

The Extremely LarGe Advanced TechnOlogy (El Gato) cluster is a high-performance computer jointly funded by the National Science Foundation and the University of Arizona.

El Gato uses specially designed hardware to achieve high performance economically, including NVIDIA K20X GPUs and Intel Xeon Phi 5110p Coprocessors. The system is designed around Intel Ivy Bridge CPUs, large amounts of memory per node (256GB/node), and FDR Infiniband. The system is also connected via FDR Infiniband speed to a DataDirect Networks SFA 12K petabyte-scale storage server.
