•Case Study: NASA

Verari Systems delivered a custom-built BladeRack that could fulfill all the specifications that Arizona State University was looking for in a supercomputing solution, but in a low-cost and spaceconscious cluster.

To help make sense of all the data that comes in from the TES and THEMIS instruments orbiting Mars, the Mars Space Flight Facility at Arizona State University uses Verari Systems' BladeRack system, a 50- node, dual AMD processor-based system, running Red Hat Linux. Arizona State decide to purchase a Verari Systems BladeRack for its ability to provide the most processing power in a limited space, offering a high-density solution for the Mars Space Flight Facility's supercomputing needs. This information was used by JPL scientists to examine potential landing sites for the Spirit and Opportunity rovers on Mars.

The BladeRack system is used by Arizona State University researchers to translate the continuous flow of raw data that is gathered from its instruments on NASA satellites orbiting Mars into clean images that are suitable for study. By helping the University process data returned from scientific instruments onboard spacecraft on and around the planet Mars, the BladeRack helps forward educational goals for the University, as well as help NASA move forward in its exploration of Mars.
