dramatically improve the performance of the overall application. The Mitrionics technology makes
supercomputing performance acceleration accessible to an entire new market
of scientists and developers previously unable to benefit from it because
of high prices, complex design skills needed, and extremely long
development times. AMD Opteron processor-powered Linux clusters, teamed
with the Panasas ActiveScale Storage Cluster(TM), are helping technical
computing environments eliminate both compute and storage performance
bottlenecks from Linux clusters. AMD64 dual-core technology provides industry-leading performance
and is a natural extension of the AMD Opteron processor's Direct Connect
Architecture, which directly connects CPU , memory, and I/O resources.
