LinuxPR: API collaborates with OCI and SCA to deliver enhanced tools for compute-intensive applications

“Alpha Processor, Inc., (API), a leading developer of
high-performance Linux solutions for High Performance Computing
(HPC) markets, today announced separate collaborations with Object
Computing, Inc. (OCI) and Scientific Computing Associates (SCA)
that deliver a new level of bandwidth and reliability to hardware
and software developers. This gives developers a set of solid,
integrated solutions that help them maximize performance on Alpha
Linux and expands API’s Developer Program, furthering its
commitment to the developer community.”

“SCA, pioneers of the commercial use of parallel and distributed
computing, is using technology based on API’s Ultimate Performance
Series motherboards to help customers create more cost effective
Alpha Linux clusters with supercomputer-like capabilities. SCA’s
distributed parallel applications through Linda, a coordination
language developed to overcome the problems of hardware,
programming and code portability in clusters, now offers
programmers the benefit of Alpha’s power and speed.”

“Jerry Lipchus, sales manager at SCA, feels the significance of
this collaboration comes with the ability to provide customers
real-world solutions at a lower cost. “Our customers are demanding
the increased bandwidth and memory only Alpha Linux offers. Working
with API, we are addressing this demand and giving them the
flexibility needed to create powerful, cost-effective computer
clusters,” he said.”
