Windows HPC Cluster Resources for Software Development
Writing great code that fully utilizes a cluster is a complex task. AMD wants to make this easier for you. We have worked closely with key OEM's to provide cluster resources in different configurations that will help you achieve your scaling and performance related goals. Each cluster offers a unique set of features that can help you make the most of your time. Look for these solutions to grow and change as newer processors come out and faster interconnects become available.
The chart below contains the basic configuration of each cluster along with a contact name and website to go to for further information. For the fastest way to find contact information on a per OEM basis, hit Page Down now.
