Altix 4000
The Altix 4000 64-bit Linux server combines scalable shared-memory NUMAflex architecture with blade packaging to provide a platform with flexibility, modularity and serviceability. Users can configure any combination of blades, including multiple types of both standard and configurable compute, as well as memory, I/O and graphics. In addition, the server integrates standard implementations of Linux from Novell and Red Hat with visualization and FPGA-based reconfigurable application specific computing (RASC) technologies. Applications are found in technical, scientific and data intensive areas, including manufacturing, life sciences, energy, research and homeland security.
