Sudip Dosanjh, NERSC & Tony Rea, Dell Technologies | SC25

Описание: In this interview from SC25, NERSC Scientific Division Director Sudip Dosanjh and Dell Technologies Global AI Infrastructure Lead Tony Rea join theCUBE’s Dave Vellante and Jackie McGuire to discuss the collision of AI and high-performance computing. The conversation centers on the upcoming deployment of "Doudna," NERSC’s next-generation supercomputer designed to handle the paradigm shift from traditional simulation to complex, data-driven workflows. Dosanjh explains how the system addresses the deluge of data from global sensors and telescopes, enabling real-time feedback loops for experiments ranging from fusion reactors to dark energy research, ultimately targeting a 10x increase in performance over previous systems.

The discussion dives deep into the engineering challenges behind the Doudna system, specifically the Dell IR7000 rack architecture and its advanced warm water cooling capabilities. Rea and Dosanjh highlight the critical importance of infrastructure resilience – from standardized plumbing couplings to dry chillers – in achieving sustainability goals while managing the heat of dense GPU clusters. They also explore how the collaboration between NERSC, Dell and NVIDIA is accelerating the pace of scientific discovery, significantly reducing the timeline for Nobel Prize-winning breakthroughs by democratizing access to AI-ready infrastructure for thousands of open science users.
