Cray Solutions for Earth Sciences

Understanding Earth’s systems is vital to the health and well-being of humankind. Cray helps bring this mission-critical task down to planet Earth.

From predicting severe storms to tracking climate shifts over centuries, understanding Earth’s systems is computationally intense. It’s why leading national weather services and earth system research centers such as NOAA, MeteoSwiss, CPTEC and the Korea Meteorological Administration choose Cray.

Cray’s robust high performance computing, storage and Big Data solutions are designed to handle the earth science community’s computational challenges such as numerical weather prediction and earth system modeling quickly and at high resolution.

Balanced, high performance capability computing systems such as the Cray XC30 and Cray XK7 massively parallel supercomputers deliver results in the shortest time possible while also allowing users to investigate increasingly complex phenomena. The capacity-oriented Cray CS300-AC and Cray CS300-LC cluster supercomputers offer high performance and maximum configuration flexibility. The Cray Sonexion provides integrated, reliable and modular scale-out Lustre storage that maximizes file system performance and scalability at any size. And the Urika graph analytics appliance transforms Big Data problems into meaningful information.
