Supercomputers with amd epyc processors to deal with weather events

With strong storms hitting much of Europe in recent weeks and growing interest in climate change, researchers across Europe are competing to apply the most powerful technologies for predicting extreme weather events with anticipation. For this you need computers with great power.

Supercomputers with AMD EPYC processors to cope with weather events

The European Center for Mid-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) will use one of the world's most powerful weather supercomputers manufactured by Atos. This team will use AMD EPYC processors starting in 2021. It will execute predictions at a much higher resolution of around 10 km, offering confidence and advanced predictions about the occurrence and intensity of severe weather events.

Collaboration with AMD

Meanwhile, Météo-France, the French national meteorological service, will use an AMD EPYC-powered supercomputer to anticipate unexpected, high-impact, small-scale weather events (such as heavy rains, gales and the risk of hail) and assist with its studies on the impact of climate change.

And that's not all, as the new "Hawk" supercomputer announced by the University of Stuttgart, powered by AMD EPYC, will allow scientists and researchers to run more complex simulations, faster than ever. It is the largest installation of second generation EPYC processors in Germany and one of the largest in the entire EMEA region.

A series of important agreements for AMD, in addition to the EPYC processor that powers the world's most powerful and essential super computers. You can have more information about this processor and its work at this link. If you need more information, do not hesitate to contact us.
