April 4, 2011 | PSSC Labs, based out of Southern California, will be unveiling a new
bioinformatics supercomputer for genome sequencing at the upcoming Bio
IT World Conference & Expo 2011 in Boston, MA. The POWERSERVE
Quattro I/A 4000 can be configured up to 48 processor cores, 1TB of
system memory and 30 TB of storage. This high performance computing
solution was designed from the ground up specifically for Life Science
applications. Priced at $14,995.00, the POWERSERVE Quattro I/A 4000
delivers both power and ROI making it the perfect fit for whole genome
de novo assembly, genome mapping and transcriptome analysis.
Life Science Computing - With over 1000 PowerWulf solutions delivered to 35+ countries, PSSC Labs (http://www.pssclabs.com)
is the world's leader in turn-key high performance clusters for Life
Sciences, specifically genome sequencing. PSSC Labs was tasked to
develop an affordable supercomputer to handle the computational needs of
some of the most demanding Life Science applications. A significant
amount of time was dedicated to the research process by interviewing top
professionals in the industry such as Core Sequencing facility managers
and research scientists. It was clear that there was a void to be
filled and a demand for cluster type resources in a stand-alone
supercomputer.
"In conversations with lab managers and biologists, the common complaint
was the need for an affordable system with large memory capacity",
explains Alex Lesser, PSSC Labs Vice President. "Our POWERSERVE QUATTRO
I/A 4000 Bioinformatics server is the answer to those needs. It is the
complete package with all necessary application tools preinstalled and
configured."
PSSC Labs built the application server from the ground up to meet the
expert's genome sequencing needs and demands. The Life Science
supercomputer can be configured with 48 processor cores, 1TB of memory
and 30TB of storage space. PSSC Labs tested and certified the POWESERVE
QUATTRO with leading next generation sequencing applications at each
step of the development cycle.
PSSC Labs includes their CBeSTTM Supercomputer Management Toolkit to
help manage, monitor and maintain the system. PSSC Labs can install,
configure, optimize and test many bioinformatics applications prior to
shipping.
As with all of PSSC Labs product line, the company's goal is to deliver
turn-key solutions allowing researchers to focus more on their work and
not the intricacies of system configuration, management, application
installation and performance tuning. The Quattro Bioinformatics server
is no exception. It's development process makes it the logical solution
for all Life Science application needs.
According to PSSC Labs the product is available today for worldwide
distribution. For more information visit booth #202 at Bio IT World
Conference & Expo 2011, April 12-14 (http://www.bio-itworldexpo.com/) . Booth visitors can play to win a free iPAD.
