What Hardware Are Typically Used in Manufacturing HPC Cluster?

Like HPC clusters in other industries, a manufacturing HPC cluster infrastructure typically contains high-performance computing servers, storage, and networking equipment from top vendors like Intel, AMD, NVIDIA, HPE, etc. in the data center. These may include GPU and CPU servers and storage, and networking firewalls, routers, switches, adapter cards, optical cables and transceivers (which were usually from Mellanox in the past), from different HPC hardware providers.

Need AI Computing Power & Image Rendering Capability?
Recommended GPUs: NVIDIA A100/A30/A40/A10

Need Low-latency Access to Storage, and Supports for GPUDirect RDMA?
Use high-performance NVIDIA Mellanox InfiniBand NICs.

Need Connectivity Assemblies to Build Low-Latency and High-Performance InfiniBand Cluster?
Use 200Gb/s HDR InfiniBand active optical cables/passive copper cables/transceivers.
