Our November 2019 Top500 new supercomputer systems analysis shows trends in the lists makeup and more diversification than the June 2019 edition

TACC Frontera which was #5 on the June 2019 Top500 list is now officially launched as fastest academic supercomputer powered by Intel, Dell EMC and others

At Hot Chips 31 (2019) we got a look at the IBM Power9 Advanced IO chip which brings PCIe Gen4, next-gen NVIDIA NVLink, and OMI memory to the platform

We show why the Microchip SMC 1000 8x25G serial attached memory controller designed for IBM Power 9 today is leading the future of server memory

Set for delivery to the IBM Q Quantum Computation center later in 2019, the new IBM Q System One quantum computer looks sleek in its CES 2019 debut

In Sunday deal news, IBM purchased Red Hat for around $34 billion. This has big implications for the ecosystem and many are going to spend the rest of the week assessing the implications

At Xilinx XDF we saw a Supermicro Power9 based server behind the IBM LC922 2U dual IBM Power9 solution. This demo system paired the Supermicro P9DSU-C platform with a Xilinx Alveo FPGA card to show off what the two can accomplish together.

IBM POWER9 presentation at Hot Chips 30 showed off huge I/O, effective 32 channel DDR4 and upcoming support for NVLink 3.0

The new IBM POWER9 scale-up servers launched with some awesome specs including PCIe Gen4. The IBM Power E950 is a 4 socket server with up to 48 cores/ 192 threads and 16TB of RAM. Scaling to 16 sockets, 1536 threads, and 64TB of RAM is the IBM Power E980.

Built for a number of high-performance computing and AI use cases, the US DoE ORNL Summit supercomputer uses IBM Power9, NVIDIA Telsa V100, and Mellanox EDR Infiniband to achieve over 200 PFLOPS of performance
