Tachyum Claims Multi ExaFlops & ZettaFlops Horsepower In Upcoming Supercomputers Despite Chip Delay

wccftech.com:

Tachyum has revealed plans for its future supercomputers that are expected to offer several Exaflops of compute performance despite chip delay.

The Important Projects of Common European Interests (IPCEI) program for Slovakia selected the Tachyum Prodigy 2 chip to assist with exascale high-performance computing (HPC) & zetta-scaling artificial intelligence (AI) for funding in Europe. The European Commission has also approved the company's 26.4M EUR Supercomputer in financing & is awaiting the finalized notification process.

Tachyum's reference designs are based on the company's systems, engineering teams, and developments to alter data centers & supercomputers into more universal computing centers, allowing for exascale and higher workloads utilizing HPC and AI to process simultaneously and within the same architectural family. The expected designs will be available in 2025.

Prodigy delivers unprecedented data center performance, power, and economics, reducing CAPEX and OPEX significantly. Because of its utility for both high-performance and line-of-business applications, Prodigy-powered data center servers can seamlessly and dynamically switch between workloads, eliminating the need for expensive dedicated AI hardware and dramatically increasing server utilization. Tachyum’s Prodigy integrates 128 high-performance custom-designed 64-bit compute cores to deliver up to 4x the highest-performing x86 processors for cloud workloads, up to 3x that of the highest-performing GPU for HPC, and 6x for AI applications.

Tachyum's supercomputer designs are expected to produce 20 EXAFLOPS of FP64 vector performance, the top of the Department of Energy's target, and within the 60MW power envelope within an area of 6,000 square feet.
