Accelerate Your R&D
Traditionally, HPC cluster is complicated and out of reach by many. Robust HPC has designed a turnkey HPC cluster solution that made the technologies possible for small research teams and highly scalable for big research & development organizations.
Our HPC cluster is preconfigured and ready to use out-of-the-box to accelerate any compute-intensive or large memory computation task that runs in parallel, resulting in a tremendous reduction of time to result which enable your team to stay ahead of the competition with a low total cost of ownership (TCO).
Powered by an industry-leading workload scheduler and powerful parallel filesystem that handles multi-petabytes and billions of files with massive IOPS, low latency and high throughput, we delivered an unmatched performance for large-scale deployment.
Application integration service and user training are available as part of our HPC solution.
HPC & AI Cluster for Higher Education Research
Powered by Dell PowerEdge servers that totals up to more than 800 Intel CPU cores, 165K NVIDIA CUDA cores, and 10,000 Tensor Cores with memory capacities reaching the range of 4.8TB DRAM, 1.9TB VRAM, and 250TB storage.
The platform is equipped with 200Gbps InfiniBand networks for superior compute throughput run within a Linux environment equipped with Bright Cluster Linux and SLURM for easy management and multiple scientific applications including but not limited to ANSYS, VASP, GATK, GROMACS, OpenFOAM, PyTorch, and TensorFlow.
This new solution can significantly improve Monash University Malaysia R&D’s operational simplicity and agility – enabled by powerful hardware, user-friendly management software, on-premise IT support, and a scalable infrastructure. Overall, addressing various demands of the university’s research community in the engineering, science, medicine, information technology, econometrics and social studies.
Our achievement:
Robust HPC is a trusted solution partner for Dell and Monash University Malaysia, where Robust HPC team works closely with the Monash team on a daily basis during the implementation to ensure smooth communication and collaboration between all parties. Robust HPC also provide the necessary technical services – from cluster planning, design, deployment and implementation to user training and residency operation support.

USE CASES
HPC Cluster for:
VRED Cluster for Automotive Design
Connecting a VRED workstation to a cluster not only could speed up the render time, allowing more still images to completed in less amount of time, it also made possible to run real-time presentation of your design at high FPS with Raytracing and Antialiasing turned on.
However, it might not be easy for a designer or general IT team to set up the cluster as it involves a wide range of IT + Computer Graphics knowledge,
For example, it would generally include making the cluster serving render farm function to CGI artists at the same time to yield a higher ROI. In that case, system components such as a high-performance storage cluster, multi-gigabits networking etc would be in place which further complicated the setup
We are ready to assist you in setting up the cluster now or in the future. Best of all, we’re not just an ordinary system integration team, we also provide consulting and planning service which could collaborate with your team as earlier as in the idea stage to help you establishing user requirements and business use cases.
A bit of achievement:
In Jan 2019, we managed to run VRED presentation on a HTC Vive Pro over a cluster with Raytracing and Antialiasing turned on @ 12 FPS. This is never possible on a single workstation regardless of single or dual processors.
