Mid-range HPC clusters


Many applications that could previously only be operated at an acceptable performance level on expensive SMP machines run faster with transtec HPC clusters. The €/FLOPS value for money is significantly better for Beowulf based solutions. You can choose from a range of example configurations and the specific equipment can be customised for individual requirements.
