Speeding up scientific breakthroughs

Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC) enables world-leading research excellence in the Basque Country with its new Hyperion supercomputer featuring Lenovo technology.

Customer Problem

DIPC had the opportunity to extend its existing high-performance computing environment with state-of-the-art solutions to meet growing demand for its resources.

Lenovo Solution

Working with Lenovo and Lenovo partner Omega Peripherals, DIPC built Hyperion, a supercomputer featuring Lenovo ThinkSystem technology.

Business Impact

With three times the performance of DIPC’s existing supercomputer, Hyperion supports more complex simulations, runs more jobs in parallel, and produces results faster.

“With help from Lenovo, we’re serving the world’s brightest and best minds with the computational resources they need to solve the toughest problems in existence.”
