AMD and HPE unveil support of Adastra supercomputer

In the goal of optimizing global energy consumption, the solution provided by HPE is among one of the most efficient by cooling 97% of the heat generated by its machine through warm water liquid cooling associated with a PUE of 1.10 leading to a maximal sustained consumption of 1.59 MW.

Finally, as part of the contract, HPE and AMD are engaged with CINES and end users’ communities in a 2-years contract of progress toward jointly porting, optimizing, and scaling out HPC and AI applications on the accelerated partition of Adastra. These activities will leverage the AMD ROCm open software platform using the HIP and OpenMP programming models, compiler toolchain, and analysis tools, thus participating in the French global effort toward Exascale-enabling of scientific and industrial applications.
