Bringing a big boost to Australia’s supercomputing power

The National Computational Infrastructure (NCI) of Australia outfits Gadi, its ultra-fast new supercomputer, with Lenovo ThinkSystem servers, powered in part by 4th Gen Intel^® Xeon^® Scalable processors. Offering 7x more compute power than its predecessor, Gadi provides a world-class high-performance computing (HPC) platform for advancing some of the country’s most crucial research.

Customer Problem

Constantly rising demand for HPC resources had pushed NCI’s longstanding supercomputer to its limits, prompting the organization to invest in a new supercomputing cluster.

Lenovo Solution

Lenovo ThinkSystem servers, featuring 3rd and 4th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors, form a vital part of NCI’s cutting-edge supercomputer, named Gadi.

Business Impact

Researchers can draw on 7x more computing power to accelerate vital research, keeping Australia at the forefront of scientific progress.

“The support we’ve received from Lenovo throughout this process has been phenomenal. Everyone has been very friendly and keen to assist.”
