Flexible Data Center Demo, IDF 2010

For those that were not able to see this demonstration live in San Francisco last week at Intel Developer Forum 2010 at the Data Center Zone High Performance Computing booth. The demo features Intel Xeon 5600 series processors in our GravityOS HPC and virtualization nodes and Intel SSD's in our GravityFS filesystem, all connected on Intel's low-latency iWarp 10g Ethernet. Infiscale's entire HPC and Cloud software stack is demonstrated, from the Perceus provisioning to the Abstractual virtualization layer and the GravityFS scalable, distributed file system. The advanced migration features of Abstractual move workload among simulated data centers to demonstrate how it can automatically manage scalable, virtualized infrastructure by migrating work to the data center that has the lowest cost available, or to the best resources following user settings. The workload in this demo includes MPI applications, web hosting, video streaming, and a cloud-based render farm using Blender.
