Cray launches the Cray XE6 Supercomputer
 Cray built the world's first production petaflops system with the Cray XT5 supercomputer in 2009. Now with the Cray XE6 system, Cray is raising the expectations for high performance computing once again.
The Cray XE6 supercomputer takes the proven Cray XT5 infrastructure and incorporates it with two innovative new technologies: powerful AMD Opteron™ 6000 Series processors and the revolutionary Cray Gemini™ interconnect. The result is a system that brings production petascale to a wider HPC community and fundamentally changes how Cray systems communicate. Designed to scale to over 1 million processor cores, every aspect of the Cray XE6 supercomputer – from its industry-leading resiliency features to its host of scalability-boosting technologies – has been engineered to meet science's ever-toughening demands for scalability, reliability and flexibility.
