Cray CX1 with Microsoft Windows HPC Server 2008

Cray CX1 Supercomputer

Cray and Microsoft have partnered extensively to create a superior out-of-the-box experience for the HPC user.  The Cray CX1 system ships pre-configured with Windows HPC Server 2008 along with installation routines that make configuration and setup a simple and straightforward process.
 
The Cray CX1 supercomputer with Windows HPC Server 2008 is an integrated solution stack that provides a simplified, common operating environment.  This powerful combination offers consistent and integrated deployment, job submission, status and progress monitoring while delivering maximum compute performance and scalability, from workgroup HPC systems to some of the world's largest supercomputers, to the end user. Additionally, this scalable solution tightly integrates with existing desktop Windows infrastructures, allowing users to extend desktop technology and skills to the realm of HPC computing. 
 
Windows HPC Server 2008 integrates with Windows Active Directory, security technologies and management and deployment tools. It supports traditional HPC MPI applications, as well as new interactive and service-oriented parallel applications using Microsoft .NET platform.  In addition, Windows HPC Server 2008 easily integrates with existing Windows and Unix environments, making it an ideal platform for developing and running advanced  HPC applications, including support for a high performance networking stack, C/C++, MPI, MPI.Net, F#, C#, Fortran, advanced debugging and tracing tools, including Vampir, along with Windows Performance Toolkit.
