HPC-optimized HP Cluster Platforms Deploying the HP Unified Cluster Portfolio (UCP) can give you the performance and flexibility of a custom solution with the simplicity and value of a factory-built product. The HP UCP is a modular package of hardware, software, and services. You can configure HP Cluster Platforms with HP ProLiant BL, DL, or SL systems. You have a choice of packaging styles, processor types, and density levels. You can choose InfiniBand solutions from Mellanox, Voltaire, or QLogic to meet your latency and bandwidth requirements. We have optimized HP Cluster Platforms for both performance and serviceability. Figure 9 shows a partial rear view of an HP Cluster Platform rack. InfiniBand switches with reversed (back-to-front) airflow are mounted in the rear of the rack. Note how this configuration allows well-organized cabling for ease of serviceability and non-restrictive airflow. Figure 9.

HPC-optimized HP Cluster Platforms
Deploying the HP Unified Cluster Portfolio (UCP) can give you the performance and flexibility of a
custom solution with the simplicity and value of a factory-built product. The HP UCP is a modular
package of hardware, software, and services.
You can configure HP Cluster Platforms with HP ProLiant BL, DL, or SL systems. You have a choice of
packaging styles, processor types, and density levels. You can choose InfiniBand solutions from
Mellanox, Voltaire, or QLogic to meet your latency and bandwidth requirements.
We have optimized HP Cluster Platforms for both performance and serviceability. Figure 9 shows a
partial rear view of an HP Cluster Platform rack. InfiniBand switches with reversed (back-to-front)
airflow are mounted in the rear of the rack. Note how this configuration allows well-organized
cabling for ease of serviceability and non-restrictive airflow.
