Abstract

JUWELS is a multi-petaflop modular supercomputer operated by Jülich Supercomputing Centre at Forschungszentrum Jülich as a European and national supercomputing resource for the Gauss Centre for Supercomputing. In addition, JUWELS serves the Earth system modeling community within the Helmholtz Association. The first module deployed in 2018, is a Cluster module based on the BullSequana X1000 architecture with Intel Xeon Skylake-SP processors and Mellanox EDR InfiniBand. An extension by a second Booster module is scheduled for deployment in 2020.
