BIOS IT is proud to be Intel® Cluster Ready certified for next generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processor Family (codename Skylake) – the biggest data centre platform advancement in a decade.

The next generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable family of processors (codename Skylake), features Intel® Advanced Vector Extension 512 (Intel® AVX-512) which can deliver up to 2x flops per clock-cycle peak performance capability increase over AVX2 – especially important for HPC workloads. Another huge advancement included in the upgrade is the integration of Intel Omnipath Architecture (Intel® OPA), integrated Intel® QuickAssist Technology (Intel® QAT) and Intel® Resource Director Technology (Intel® RDT).

The Intel® Xeon® Scalable Family of processors now provide 28-cores per processor (increased from 22) with up to 2 threads per core, giving a total of 56 threads per processor and delivers 6 memory channels per processor (12 over the platform), with frequency up to 2666MHz, a huge increase of 50% from the previous generation. Intel® QuickPath interconnect becomes Ultra Path Interconnect (Intel® UPI), and boasts increases in both speed and efficiency. PCI-Express increases from 40 lanes to 48 lanes per processor. The platform will be scalable up to 8 sockets, allowing a huge number of CPUs to work in tandem in any given configuration.

BIOS IT Labs is now certified Intel® Cluster Ready for its broad range of HPC solutions featuring Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors. Our pre-configured cluster solutions are delivered ready to run, allowing customers to unleash more parallel performance faster.

Intel® Cluster Ready architecture means pre-tested inter-operability, so our customers can realise HPC benefits faster. Match certified systems with registered applications and enjoy the freedom to focus on purchasing the configuration that best fits your application workload – without worrying if components will work together. Intel® Cluster Ready solutions come with the Intel® Cluster Checker tool, to help you validate that the cluster remains within certification over time and troubleshoot any problems that occur. The result: greater productivity and higher return on your HPC investment.

With the constant innovations in technology and profusion of options, we understand how daunting the prospect of investing in new, upgraded IT hardware must be – especially without the option of viewing or testing your purchase prior to receiving it. BIOS IT Labs give customers the ability to come down to our office and test out our products first-hand. If you are unable to reach us we can also set up remote access to our servers, so that you can run simulations on your own system and, if you wish, using your own software. Come and test the Intel® Xeon® Scalable Family of processors today at our London City based facility.
