Gyoukou (Japanese: 暁光 Hepburn: gyōkō, dawn light) is a supercomputer developed by ExaScaler and PEZY Computing.
It is deployed at Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) Yokohama Institute for Earth Sciences, the same floor where the Earth Simulator is located.
System
Gyoukou is based on ExaScaler's ZettaScaler-2.x technology which features liquid immersion cooling system using Fluorinert.[1][2]
Each immersion tank can contain 16 Bricks. A Brick consists of a backplane board, 32 PEZY-SC2 modules, 4 Intel Xeon D host processors, and 4 InfiniBand EDR cards.[3] Modules inside a Brick are connected by hierarchical PCI Express fabric switches,[1] and the Bricks are interconnected by InfiniBands.
Each PEZY-SC2 module contains 2048 processing elements (1 GHz design), six MIPS64 control processors, and 4 DDR4 DIMMs (64GB per module as of November 2017).[4][3]
Performance
With partial configuration, Gyoukou was ranked 69th at 1,677.1 teraflops on the June 2017 TOP500 ranking.[3][5]
After upgrade to full scale (equivalent of 19.5 immersion tanks) using newer ZettaScaler-2.2 system, it ranked 4th at 19,135.8 teraflops on the November 2017 TOP500 ranking.[6] At the time of benchmarking, 1984 out of 2048 cores of each PEZY-SC2 were used at 700 MHz clock.[3]
Gyoukou has high energy efficiency, and it ranked 5th at 14.173 gigaflops/watt on the November 2017 Green500 energy efficiency ranking.[7]
