HPE Apollo 70 System

Bringing Change and Choice to the High Performance Computing Community

The HPE Apollo 70 System features the high performance Marvell ThunderX2 Arm processor, enabling straightforward access to Arm architecture based high performance computing (HPC).

Using the high performance Marvell ThunderX2 processors with up to 32 cores and 8 DDR4 memory channels, the HPE Apollo 70 System supports higher core counts and 33% more memory bandwidth than typical industry standard dual socket server platforms.

Choice of two compute tray offerings enables flexibility in choice of either higher number of nodes per rack, or PCIe expansion capabilities, or a combination of both.

Designed from the Ground Up for HPC Cluster Deployments

The HPE Apollo 70 System is a dense “4 in 2U” chassis system architecture that supports up to 4 dual socket servers in a 2U chassis and enables up to 80 nodes, allowing over 5,000 Arm cores in a 42U rack.

The Marvell ThunderX2 processor system-on-a-chip delivers increased density and power efficiency which is key to building larger cluster installations.

Each server node feature built in high speed (100 Gb/s) Mellanox® ConnectX®-5 InfiniBand or Ethernet connectivity for cluster communication.

Reduce the time and resources spent administering your system using HPE Performance Cluster Manager software which offers all functionalities you need to manage your cluster all day everyday including system setup, hardware and health management, image management, power management and more.

Quality and Support Expected from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Design and Manufacture

The HPE Apollo 70 System leverages the proven, high density, cost effective HPE Apollo 2000 System architecture which has been a leading HPC cluster building block for multiple generations.
