Cray XC40

The Cray XC40 is a massively parallel multiprocessor supercomputer manufactured by Cray.

It consists of Intel Haswell Xeon processors, with optional Nvidia Tesla or Intel Xeon Phi accelerators, connected together by Cray's proprietary "Aries" interconnect, stored in air-cooled or liquid-cooled cabinets.

[1] The XC series supercomputers are available with the Cray DataWarp applications I/O accelerator technology.

[2] The Center for Computational Astrophysics at the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan have an XC40 system named "ATERUI".

This is an upgrade from a previous Cray XC30 system.
