Podcast: Big Data on the Wrangler Supercomputer
by Rich Brueckner from High-Performance Computing News Analysis | insideHPC on (#XD4J)
In this TACC podcast, Niall Gaffney from the Texas Advanced Computing Center discusses the Wrangler supercomputer for data-intensive computing. "We went to propose to build Wrangler with (the data world) in mind. We kept a lot of what was good with systems like Stampede, but then added new things to it like a very large flash storage system, a very large distributed spinning disc storage system, and high speed network access to allow people who have data problems that weren't being fulfilled by systems like Stampede and Lonestar to be able to do those in ways that they never could before."
