SKIF MSU Cluster

In March 2008 the SKIF MSU cluster was the most powerful supercomputer in Russia, the CIS
and Eastern Europe when it was deployed at Moscow State University. Force10 Networks is the
premier partner selected to deliver 10 GbE switching infrastructure for large multi-node systems,
providing 10 GbE solutions that deliver best-in-class density, price and performance.
The HPCC cluster is powered by two C300 switches. The storage system consists of 12 modules,
each connected to two S50N switches via 4xGbE trunk. All of the four switches are linked
together to an S2410 switch by 10 GbE trunks. This architecture delivers a non-blocking fabric
with no single point of failure in the storage transport network.
