Re: GPU-based Compute Cloud

Here is another step to GPU cloud:

Acceleware released the world's first commercially available GPU-based cluster solution, the C30-16 (16 GPUs expandable to 64 NVidia Tesla GPUs).

quote:

The GPU cluster solution combined with Acceleware's computational algorithms was benchmarked with data provided by end users, confirming processing power capable of solving problems billions of cells in size with speeds approaching 14 Gigacells per second for electronic design customers. At these processing speeds, Acceleware's C30-16 is competitive against traditional, more expensive clusters of around 1000 cores. For seismic customers using techniques like Reverse Time Migration, problem sets in the range of billions of cells over thousands of square kilometers found in large marine surveys will now be commercially possible with the Acceleware solution.
