— Fron­tier super­com­pu­ter, powe­red by AMD EPYC CPUs and AMD Instinct Acce­le­ra­tors, achie­ves num­ber one spots on Top500, Green500 and HPL-AI per­for­mance lists, an indus­try first —

— AMD powers five of the top ten most power­ful and eight of the top ten most effi­ci­ent super­com­pu­ters in the world —

SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today, AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) show­ca­sed its con­ti­nued lea­ders­hip in high per­for­mance com­pu­ting (HPC) by powe­ring the fas­test and the most ener­gy effi­ci­ent super­com­pu­ters in the world, accord­ing to the latest Top500 and Green500 lists.

Oak Ridge Natio­nal Laboratory’s (ORNL) Fron­tier sys­tem sub­mit­ted its very first score to the Top500 list of 1.1 exa­flops, making it the world’s fas­test super­com­pu­ter and the first to break the exas­ca­le bar­ri­er. Frontier’s per­for­mance is more than dou­ble the num­ber two sys­tem and grea­ter than the sum of the next seven sys­tems on the latest Top500 list.

In addi­ti­on, the Fron­tier test and deve­lo­p­ment sys­tem (TDS) secu­red the top spot on the Green500 list, deli­vering 62.68 gigaflops/watt power-effi­ci­en­cy from a sin­gle cabi­net of opti­mi­zed 3rd Gen AMD EPYC™ pro­ces­sors and AMD Instinct™ MI250x acce­le­ra­tors. Final­ly, Frontier’s mixed-pre­cisi­on com­pu­ting per­for­mance clo­cked in at 6.86 exa­flops, as mea­su­red by the High-Per­for­mance Lin­pack-Acce­le­ra­tor Intro­spec­tion, or HPL-AI, test. Next steps for Fron­tier inclu­de con­ti­nued tes­ting and vali­da­ti­on of the sys­tem, which remains on track for final accep­t­ance and ear­ly sci­ence access later in 2022, and open for full sci­ence at the begin­ning of 2023.

The­se VMs extend the AMD EPYC pro­ces­sor port­fo­lio of Con­fi­den­ti­al Com­pu­ting on Goog­le Cloud with the per­for­mance of 3rd Gen EPYC pro­ces­sors in com­pu­te-opti­mi­zed VMs.

A key Con­fi­den­ti­al Com­pu­ting com­po­nent pro­vi­ded by AMD EPYC pro­ces­sors is AMD Secu­re Encryp­ted Vir­tua­liz­a­ti­on (SEV), part of AMD Infi­ni­ty Guard. This advan­ced hard­ware-based secu­ri­ty fea­ture encrypts full sys­tem memo­ry and indi­vi­du­al vir­tu­al machi­ne memo­ry as well as iso­la­ting the VM memo­ry from the hyper­vi­sor, without dra­ma­ti­cal­ly impac­ting per­for­mance. With the expan­si­on of Con­fi­den­ti­al Com­pu­ting in N2D and C2D VMs, Goog­le Cloud cus­to­mers now have access to advan­ced hard­ware enab­led secu­ri­ty fea­tures powe­red by 3rd Gen AMD EPYC pro­ces­sors that will help pro­tect sen­si­ti­ve, wide-varie­ty workloads.
