The International Conference for High Performance Computing Networking, Storage, and Analysis.
In 2011 AGLT2 participated in the SuperComputing conference Nov 12-18 in Seattle. AGLT2 has participated in SC yearly since 2005. During the 2011 event AGLT2 was able to demonstrate 40Gb/s data flows to the conference floor from Ann Arbor.
At AGLT2 we are strong believers in good monitoring and configuration management. Read more about our usage of tools such as Cacti, Syslog-ng, Ganglia, and Cfengine here.
We have benchmarked a variety of hardware from Dell, Sun, and Nexsan running OS including Linux, Solaris, and FreeBSD. Some results are posted on our wiki.
