DEEP system

The DEEP system is a prototype modular supercomputer, developed within the EU-funded DEEP-EST project

Modular Supercomputing prototype developed within the DEEP-EST project

The DEEP system is made of three compute modules

  • Cluster Module (CM)
  • Extreme Scale Booster (ESB)
  • Data Analytics Module (DAM)

See hardware details in the table below

Usage and design target

Applications and code parts requiring high single-thread performance and a modest amount of memory, which typically show moderate scalability.

Compute intensive applications and code parts with regular control and data structures, showing high parallel scalability.

Data-intensive analytics and machine learning applications and code parts requiring large memory capacity, data streaming, bit- or small datatype processing.
