In collaboration with the Leibniz Data Center, Nvidia and Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (HPE) want to build a new supercomputer in Germany. The high -performance calculator called “Blue Lion” will probably be ready for use in the early 2027.
This was announced on Tuesday by the chip manufacturers and the server provider. The Leibniz Data Center offers researchers and researchers powerful computers and cloud services.
At the same time, Nvidia announced that the “Jupiter” Supercomputer of the Jülich Research Center was now officially the fastest computer in Europe. According to the information, this crackles the brand of a trillion computing operations per second. In Jülich, scientists work on the development of quantum computers or new technologies for the energy transition.
With processors specially developed for AI
“Blue Lion” is said to be equipped with “Vera Rubin” chips from Nvidia. These processors developed for artificial intelligence (AI) are the successors of the current top model “Blackwell” and will be on the market next year. Together with the HPE rival Dell, Nvidia had recently announced the construction of a supercomputer for the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab in the US.
NVIDIA propagates the use of AI for scientific predictions. For this goal, the world’s largest provider of AI processors presented his software “climate in the bottle” on Tuesday. Based on less current measurement data, it must calculate the development of the climate for the next ten to 30 years for each place on earth. “The researchers will use a combined approach to classical physics and artificial intelligence to simulate turbulent atmospheric movements,” said Dion Harris, Nvidia Sales Manager for data center products. “With this technology you can analyze thousands and thousands of scenarios more more detailed than ever before.”
