SiCortex is the first company to engineer high-productivity computers from the silicon up. We have carefully thought through the impact of every design element on the system, focusing attention on what truly drives performance. At the same time, we have engineered the lowest power requirement in the industry, to break the shackles of data center constraints for our customers. The bottom line: the computer industry’s highest delivered performance per watt. SiCortex systems deliver the most computing power per dollar, from both purchase price and total cost of ownership perspectives.

… enables organizations to Achieve more, Consume less

High Capability System: SC5832

The SC5832™ provides up to 8.2 TFlops of compute power in a single, self-cooling cabinet. Configurations range from 1,944 to 5,832 processors and up to 8 terabytes of memory. The SC5832 HPCC benchmark results rank among those of supercomputers costing millions more and consuming 4-5 times as much electricity.

Entry/Mid-range System: SC1458

The SC1458™ provides up to 2.1 TFlops of compute power in a single, low-footprint cabinet, suitable for an office or laboratory environment. Configurations range from 324 to 1,458 processors and up to 1.9 terabytes of memory.

Deskside Development System: SC072-PDS

The SC072-PDS™ Personal Development System provides a powerful, easy-to-use development environment for parallel programming. Packaged with Linux, the operating system of choice for HPC, and a plethora of open systems tools and libraries, the PDS harnesses the power of 72 processors while using no more electricity than a typical PC.

PathScale Compiler Suite

The PathScale™ Compiler Suite Compiler Suite by SiCortex represents the highest-performance 64-bit C, C++ and FORTRAN compilers for Linux-based environments. This advanced compiler suite takes advantage of the unique high-performance 64-bit features of the SiCortex node processor chips, as well as the Advanced Micro Devices AMD64 and the Intel ® Xeon™ EM64T architectures.

Development Environment

Each SiCortex system is packaged with a plethora of open source tools, libraries and codes. These include the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC), MPI Library, a rich suite of open source mathematics and scientific library packages that have been optimized for the SiCortex architecture, and a powerful array of integrated performance analysis tools.
