We are pleased to announce that the new DGX - Deep learning GPUs Accelerators are available for ISCRA projects.  These nodes are equipped with DGX-A100 cards, each one hosting 8 Nvidia A100 GPUs; 2AMD Rome 7742 Processors (128) and 1TB of RAM. They are specifically designed for Machine learning projects, but also suitable for many other projects. DGX cards will be in production phase from November 2020.

Details about how to request these resources can be found on ISCRA guidelines.

LEONARDO Data Centric and General Purpose  will enter the production phase on February 12th.
LEONARDO, which is in the production phase since Summer 2023, is ranked 6th among the most powerful supercomputers in the Top500 List. 

The European supercomputer Leonardo, managed by Cineca, is based on Atos BullSequana XH2000 technology, and features nearly 14,000 NVIDIA Ampere architecture-based GPUs and NVIDIA Mellanox HDR InfiniBand. It delivers 10 exaflops of FP16 AI performance.

In 2024, Leonardo will receive an upgrade  targeting an increase of 100 PFlops of computing capacity, that will introduce a new partition, LISA,  further expanding its capacity and expertise and serving as an invaluable resource for the European scientific community.

Some preliminary technical details about the new system will be available soon in our UserGuide.
