Denver, Colorado, home to SC23, is known for its stunning, picturesque mountaintops. These peaks served as the perfect backdrop for Lenovo’s peak, record-breaking year of wins including placements on the TOP500 and Green500 lists and a number of HPCwire awards.
Lenovo is a proud sponsor of SC23, the international conference for high performance computing, networking, storage, and analysis. Starting November 13, join us in Denver, Colorado on the floor of the Colorado Convention Center in booth #601. Our theme this year is, “Smarter revolutionizes HPC”.
How do Lenovo’s solutions revolutionize HPC? Stop by booth #601 to learn more, but in the meantime,
here is a sneak peek.
For the last five years, Lenovo has been the top provider on the TOP500 list of supercomputers, and the release of the June 2023 list during ISC23 was no different. With a whopping 168 Lenovo ThinkSystems (that’s 33% of the list), the company’s reach is widespread – reaching 19 different global markets from Australia to the United States and many more between. Additionally, sitting atop the Green500 list as the world’s most energy efficient supercomputer, is Flatiron Institute’s Henri system, built on Lenovo
technology.
A new global high performance computing (HPC) study by Hyperion Research sponsored by Dell Technologies, Intel, and NVIDIA finds evidence of a remarkable rise of sustainability and energy efficiency to the top of priority lists for many HPC datacenter procurement plans, second only to performance, even more imperative than price. A culmination of several geopolitical factors and HPC utilization trends in recent years has made the issue of sustainability unavoidable for many HPC sites.
Join Lenovo, ISC23 Platinum Sponsor, at Congress Center Hamburg (CCH) in Germany from May 22-25 in booth B213. This year, our theme is Smarter is a sustainable tomorrow. Sustainability is a driving force for Lenovo as we develop computing solutions for the 21 st century that enable our customers to solve humanity’s greatest challenges. We are uniquely positioned to guide our customers along their own sustainability journeys because we have begun pursuing our own. This year, we announced our commitment to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, validated by Science Based Targets initiative. Strategies for reducing our environmental impact include …
Today's data centers consume between 1% and 3% of all electricity worldwide. Over 80% (Reference 1) of this electricity is currently generated by burning fossil fuels, and electricity generation is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide. However, data centers continue to expand as new services are constantly being offered to consumers and organizations. Advanced computing technologies that include CPU level generational enhancements, heterogeneous computing, and faster storage and networking enable more complex analytics and simulations to be brought into mainstream workloads.
DATA AT THE CENTER OF THE SOCIETY
Datacenters can be considered as a sort of nervous system of the contemporary society. Just like the human nervous system, datacenters are not single structures, working on their own. Quite the contrary, “datacenters” are heterogeneous systems with multiple layers of complexity and integration and interaction, internally and externally. This apparently obvious statement should nevertheless be never forgotten because we are entering an era in which datacenters will play a fundamental role in our daily lives. And to make the next digital revolution (in fact, already undergoing), sustainable, we as an industry must find …
Data centers host many users and applications and have become the competitive advantage for research organization and manufacturing companies. Keeping the data center intact and healthy is critical, as operational costs of supercomputers continue to rise, driven by growing scientific computing demands and new security threats. Moreover, malicious users may exploit data center access to misuse compute resources by running prohibited applications, such as crypto currency mining, resulting in unexpected downtimes and higher operating costs. This week, NVIDIA unveiled the Unified Fabric Manager (UFM) Cyber-AI platform, which minimizes downtime and saves OPEX in InfiniBand data centers by harnessing AI-powered analytics …
