The $12 million “HPC in a Container” will serve all of the DoD’s agencies and services when it is delivered late 2019 and will initially be based at a US Army supercomputing research laboratory at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland.

The containerised facility will consist of a HPC, capable of six petaFLOPs of single precision performance, housed in an ordinary shipping container, complete with a UPS, chilled water cooling and fire suppression system.
Sally Parsons, Huntsville Center Information Technology Systems Division chief, said the supercomputer will be primarily used for machine learning and data analytics workloads not previously possible with HPCs installed in fixed locations.
