Revolutionary Mid-range Server Delivers New Levels of Performance, Efficiency and Flexibility with a Modular Blade Design

System Highlights

• Modular blade design for excellent performance density and 'plug and solve' flexibility
• Delivers industry-leading power efficiency - best sustained flops per watt
• Scalable system size for simplified programming, administration and sustained performance

Innovative modular blade design for excellent performance density and 'plug and solve' flexibility
SGI Altix 450 servers are configured from interchangeable compute, memory, I/O and special purpose blades for 'plug and solve' configuration flexibility. The innovative blade-to-NUMAlink® architecture enables users to mix and match eight standardized blade choices, for perfect system right-sizing. The compact blade packaging of the Altix 450 rack also provides excellent performance density - up to a teraflop per tall rack - as well as industry-leading power efficiency.

Designed for future upgrade, expansion and integration of next-generation HPC technologies
SGI Altix 450 supports Dual-Core Intel® Itanium® Processors and offers easy upgrade or expansion of CPU, memory, I/O or visualization capabilities. Altix 450 also features peer-connectivity for all components which enables high-speed access to SGI's large shared memory. This capability is exploited powerfully with integration of SGI's Reconfigurable Application Specific Computing technology which brings the advantages of FPGA computing to Altix applications.

Scalable system size for simplified programming, easy administration and sustained performance
SGI Altix 450 incorporates the shared-memory NUMAflex® architecture, which simplifies software development, workload management and system administration. It supports up to 38 sockets (76 cores) under one instance of Linux and up to 864GB of globally addressable memory. Supporting these powerful capabilities is the NUMAlink interconnect, which leads the industry in bandwidth and latency for superior performance on cluster applications. The SGI Altix 450 represents a versatile solution for shared or distributed memory applications.
