Silicon Graphics International Corp. unveiled Altix UV, expanding the definition of supercomputing. SGI Altix UV is targeted at high-end supercomputing, very large-scale databases and data analytic environments. SGI Altix UV leverages next generation Intel(R) Xeon(R) x86 processors to deliver the fastest, most scalable shared memory supercomputer in the world. SGI Altix UV will be on display at Supercomputing 2009 at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, Oregon, November 16-20, 2009, in booth #1721. Altix UV enables scaling from 32 to 2,048 cores with architectural provisioning for up to 262,144 cores, while supporting up to 16 terabytes of global shared memory in a single system image (SSI). Superior performance is built into every SGI Altix UV system, leveraging SGI's high speed 15GB per second interconnect NUMAlink(R) 5 and MPI Offload Engine (MOE) acceleration. Altix UV is available in two models: Altix UV 1000- For maximum scalability, Altix UV 1000 ships as a fully integrated cabinet-level solution with up to 256 sockets (2,048 cores) and 16TB of shared memory in four racks for up to 18.6 Tflops of performance. Altix UV 100 addresses the mid-range market based on an industry-standard 19' rackmount 3U form factor. This model scales to 96 sockets (768 cores) and 6TB of shared memory in two racks for up to 7.0 Tflops of performance.
