Success stories

Crash-test computing
We designed a customized Linux-based HPC solution for an automotive supplier’s crash-test computing. s.cluster was used for installation and configuration, batch processing is managed through Platform LSF and job submit is performed via a customized web front-end.

Data conversion
For an automobile manufacturer, we created a plan for the virtualization of their existing Windows cluster environment. Platform LSF is used to load CATIA model data from a PLM system. The data is converted and brought into a structured format on Windows systems.

Virtual medication research
We implemented a Linux cluster for computer-aided research into active ingredients at a pharmaceuticals company. The HPC solution was customized for the individual requirements then installed and configured using s.cluster. Sun Grid Engine is being used as a batch system.
