Lustre Class
70 percent of the world’s top 500 fastest computers are powered by Lustre.

Lustre has the scalability and the reliability to meet the enormous IO requirements placed on the storage systems that support these massively parallel clusters.

Lustre’s intelligent architecture turns commodity hardware into smart storage devices that manage data objects. The objects are dynamically distributed across the servers, results in performance and scalability.

Lustre technology has been developed and maintained as open source software. Whamcloud is committed to enabling the Lustre technology by opening up file system support to the industry with open feature development and worldclass support.

With veteran Lustre engineers and developers working at Whamcloud contributing to the Lustre code, Lustre will continue to get stronger as it continues its broad acceptance in HPC and commercial environments.

The community of users and stakeholder behind Lustre are committed to supporting and extending the Lustre file system. This means helping to focus and extend Lustre development in areas deemed critical to users.

JNET 2000 as a Whamcloud partner brings to the Italian HPC market Level I and II of Lustre Support and report to Whamcloud Level III customer issues.

JNET 2000 is proud to announce the first Italian class hosted by CINECA, the largest Italian computing center and delivered by Whamcloud’s Lustre veterans.
