Resources
The Hewlett Packard Enterprise Data Science Institute (HPE DSI) owns and maintains several high performance computing (HPC) platforms that are housed in RCDC and managed by the UH Research Computing Center (RCC). We support researchers and projects by offering leading-edge computational resources. Capabilities include high-capacity storage and backup, parallel and big data applications, high-speed networking, and access to widely used software.
Computing Clusters
The HPE DSI has two large clusters (Carya and Sabine) to support scientific computation, big data applications, and large-scale data storage. All the nodes of each one of these clusters are connected by high-speed networks. Between local and shared disks, the clusters offer more than 1600 TBs of high-performance total disk space.
CARYA
The Carya cluster offers a total of 208 Hewlett Packard Enterprise compute HPE nodes and 64 Nvidia Volta V100 GPUs. Theoretical peak performance of 770 Teraflops is provided by ~10K CPU cores, 327K GPU cores, 45 TB of main memory and 2 TB of high bandwidth GPU memory. Interconnect: Carya nodes are connected via Mellanox HDR Infiniband switch with 100Gb/s Line Rate. Storage: Carya has 1,560 TB of shared hard-disk based storage and 122 TB of shared flash storage space.
SABINE
The Sabine cluster offers a total of 124 compute nodes with 3,472 cores and 25 TB of main memory within 116 HP Proliant XL170r nodes, and 8 HP ProLiant XL190r nodes. Interconnect: Sabine nodes are connected via Intel OmniPath switch with a 100 Gb Line Rate. Storage: Sabine has a shared ~725 TB NFS storage.
Visualization Theater
HPE DSI is excited to open the doors of its new Data Visualization Laboratory located in the AERB building, 2nd floor, room 201, with dynamic displays, furniture and systems to support a variety of research, workshops, training, and presentation projects. You may book this facility by contacting Helaine Guillory at hguillor@central.uh.edu.
