System Architecture

The bwForCluster Helix is a high performance supercomputer with high speed interconnect. The system consists of compute nodes (CPU and GPU nodes), some infrastructure nodes for login and administration and a storage system. All components are connected via a fast Infiniband network. The login nodes are also connected to the Internet via Baden Württemberg's extended LAN BelWü.

Storage Architecture

There is one storage system providing a large parallel file system based on IBM Storage Scale for $HOME, for workspaces, and for temporary job data.

Network

The components of the cluster are connected via two independent networks, a management network (Ethernet and IPMI) and an Infiniband fabric for MPI communication and storage access. The Infiniband backbone is a fully non-blocking fabric with 200 Gb/s data speed. The compute nodes are connected with different data speeds according to the node configuration. The term HDR100 stands for 100 Gb/s and HDR200 for 200 Gb/s.
