Scale-out clusters built on InfiniBand and HP technology

Scale-out cluster computing has become the common architecture for HPC, and broader markets are

adopting it. The trend is toward using space- and power-efficient systems for scale-out solutions.

Figure 6 shows the key components for building a scalable HPC solution.
