ARMONK, N.Y., Nov. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — IBM ( IBM) supercomputers are the most energy efficient in the world, according to the latest Supercomputing ‘Green500 List’ announced today by Green500.org.

The list shows that 18 of the Top 20 most energy efficient supercomputers in the world are built on IBM high-performance computing technology. The list includes supercomputers from Saudi Arabia to Germany and the United States that are being used for a variety of applications such as astronomy, climate prediction and pharmaceutical research. IBM also holds 69 of the Top 100 positions on this list.

Energy efficiency — including performance per watt for the most computationally demanding workloads — is a core design principle in developing IBM systems. IBM offers the broadest range of generally applicable supercomputers represented on the Green500 List including Blue Gene, Power servers, iDataPlex, BladeCenter and hybrid clusters.

Check out this article talking about IBM’s ranking in the Supercomputing Green500 List, it’s great to see these kind of announcements which illustrate the possibilities of Super Computing and how with the right range of technologies and configuration, we can still deliver high performance solutions in an efficient way gaining a high performance per watt. Do check it out, Dell, HP and Cray are on the list (to name a few).
