Pages 5 Pages

Aurora, the U.S.'s first Exascale HPC system built on Intel® architecture, will deliver over 2 exaFLOPS of compute power at Argonne National Laboratory. Designed with Intel® Xeon® CPU Max Series, Intel® Data Center GPU Max Series, Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory, and oneAPI, Aurora supports massive-scale research in AI, biochemistry, physics, and more. With 230+ petabytes of DAOS storage, HPE Cray EX architecture, and Slingshot interconnect, it enables fast, scalable, and energy-efficient processing. Early science programs span dark matter, cancer research, fusion energy, and aircraft design, pushing scientific boundaries through real-time, data-intensive simulation and analysis.
