For companies that want an easily affordable compute server with tremendous computing power-plus the ability to scale system performance and capacity as their needs grow-Sun introduces the SunTM HPC 4500.

This server lets you purchase just the amount of computing capacity you need today-then cost-effectively expand that capacity to a level that exceeds most other high performance compute systems.

Unique design provides excellent throughput. Its unique multiprocessing design enables you to increase computational power and application throughput via low-cost modular upgrades. And the highly efficient, multithreaded SolarisTM operating environment ensures that users achieve near linear increases in performance as more CPUs and memory channels are added to the server. The HPC 4500 can scale to support extremely compute-intensive workloads because the GigaplaneTM, our 2.6-GB/sec system interconnect, delivers extremely high bandwidth and very low sustained latencies.

Providing the flexibility to adapt to rapidly increasing computing workloads, the HPC 4500 can support up to 14 high-speed UltraSPARCTM processors and 14 GB of memory. Its hot-swapable components can be serviced while the system continues to run. In addition, the SolsticeTM SyMONTM system monitor can predict potential failures and automatically warn the system administrator and SunServiceSM personnel so preventive action can be taken.

Software to help you manage your workload.
Each HPC system includes selected software tools that perform workload and resource management, and support the development and execution of high-performance, parallel applications. By offering tools like LSF for workload management, MPI, and MPI I/O for message passing, Sun provides unrivaled parallel application development and management capabilities, bringing Sun's network computing vision to high-end technical markets. The Sun HPC ClusterTools 3.0TM software suite provides the tools needed to solve your complex, compute-intensive applications, and in a cost-effective manner.

Like all Sun servers, the Sun HPC 4500 comes with SolarisTM, the most popular and advanced network computing environment that supports over 12,000 applications, including all of the important analysis, modeling and simulation solutions. It is backed by SunServiceSM, which is consistently rated among the leaders in customer satisfaction, and is there for you 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with mission-critical support and expert IT consulting.
