Procurement of direct-water-cooled computing nodes, network, management components and racks

The aim of the award is to procure high-performance direct-water-cooled HPC cluster components. Offers for an HPC cluster system with the following system complexes are evaluated here:

System complex with accelerated computing nodes: direct-water-cooled system complex consisting of necessary racks, management servers, network components, and accelerated computing nodes with 4 GPUs per node. Approximately 27% of delivered compute nodes are to be networked here at over 100 GB of Ethernet, the rest via Infiniband.

System complex with general-purpose computing nodes: direct-water-cooled systemComplex consisting of necessary racks, management servers, network components, as well as general-purpose computing nodes based on an x86_64 compatible instruction set. All compute nodes are to be networked via Infiniband.
