f76933ce-64f1-4280-af4d-c4fb14359fcc-248294Diamond Light Source (DLS) wishes to deploy a new platform for the collection and analysis of experimental data from beamlines and electron microscopes. The installation will be in our new data centre and will provide an integrated set of high performance compute nodes and a highly resilient, high performance file system. Diamond already operates a suite of high performance file systems and a HPC cluster in an existing data centre. However, this new system will not be 'tightly coupled' with existing HPC and storage platforms. i.e. it is not planned to extend the low latency, high bandwidth current Infiniband fabric across to the new data centre. This procurement is for the foundations of a new platform in a new datacentre, and it is required that this new system will be able to grow over time in both capacity and capability within the new data centre. The budget for the new system is £2M ex VAT.

In order to be considered, your response should arrive no later than midnight on Thursday 1st March 2018.
