The Defense Department has added two new supercomputers to its arsenal, announcing the acquisition earlier this week. The computers will seek to establish a cumulative capability of more than 23 petaflops of performance. The agency believes that the supercomputers will enter production service at some point in mid-2021.
The supercomputers will boost some of the DoD’s most significant modernization challenges, such as including digital engineering and other emerging workloads, according to DSRC Director Matt Goss. The high-performance computing combined with data analytics allows the machines to aid scientists in world-changing discoveries.
