NVIDIA Tesla K40: one of the World's Fastest Accelerator for Supercomputing and Big Data Analytics.
Launched
yesterday, Connectikpeople can observe that the new NVIDIA the NVIDIA® Tesla® K40 GPU accelerator can doubles memory of its predecessor, enabling new categories of accelerated
applications.
This GPU is optimized for big data analytics and large-scale scientific
workloads. Therefore the NVIDIA GPU Boost™ technology, converts power headroom
into a user-controlled performance boost, the NVIDIA Kepler™ compute
architecture brings the highest performance: 4.29 teraflops single-precision
and 1.43 teraflops double-
precision peak floating point performance.
Connectikpeople has captured the following key features of the Tesla K40
GPU accelerator:
- 12GB of ultra-fast GDDR5 memory allows users to process 2X larger datasets, enabling them to rapidly analyze massive volumes of data.
- 2,880 CUDA® parallel processing cores deliver application acceleration by up to 10X compared to using a CPU alone.
- Dynamic Parallelism enables GPU threads to dynamically spawn new threads, enabling users to quickly and easily crunch through adaptive and dynamic data structures.
- PCIe Gen-3 interconnect support accelerates data movement by 2X compared to PCIe Gen-2 technology.
The complete catalog of GPU-accelerated
applications is available as a free
download. To learn more about CUDA or download the latest version, visit the CUDA website. Users can also try the Tesla K40 GPU accelerator for free on remotely
hosted clusters. Visit the GPU Test Drive website for more
The NVIDIA Tesla K40 GPU accelerator is available now and in the coming
months from a variety of server manufacturers, including Appro, ASUS, Bull,
Cray, Dell, Eurotech, HP, IBM, Inspur, SGI, Sugon, Supermicro and Tyan, as well
as from NVIDIA reseller partners.
