GPU nodes - Mésocentre de l'Université de Strasbourg

Current configuration
  • publicgpu or grantgpu queue:
    • 2 nodes with 4 K20 GPU cards
    • 1 nodes with 2 K20 and one K40 GPU card
  • public queue:
    • M2050, M2070 and K20 GPUs.
Planned configuration (28 GPUs)
  • Must be compatible with existing NEC nodes of the HPC cluster
  • The GPUs must be able to host G and M matrices larger than 5GB.
  • 6 compute nodes
    • 4 GPU NVIDIA K40 per node (total: 24 GPUs)
    • Each GPU will have its own dedicated PCI-E slot
  • 4 GPU cards to be installed on existing nodes (2 GPU/node)
    • NVIDIA K40
    • Each GPU card will have its own dedicated PCI-E slot
  • We also request 3 years of software and hardware support
  • Budget: 147 000 euros VAT included
  • Currently working with Transtech, Nec and Dell for pre-pricings :
    • Nec/Transtech working on the same nodes as the ones installed
    • Dell working on a solution based on a C8000 chassis and C8220x nodes. If the C8000 chassis is full, could be the same density as the NEC nodes. Otherwise may be less interresting
