Cray is building new Shasta Supercomputers. The first will be built for $146 million at Berkeley National Labs. It will use AMD Epyc processor and the next-generation Einstein Nvidia Tesla GPU accelerator. The “Perlmutter” NERSC-9 supercomputer will be installed in late 2020. Cray has built a new interconnect, called “Slingshot”. The current Cori NERSC-8 machine at LBNL is a Cray XC40 system using the company’s “Aries” interconnect. There are 14 cabinets. The Cori system has 32.3 peak petaflops using Xeon and Xeon Phi nodes. It cost $75 million, or $2,321 per teraflops They are aiming for the Shasta supercomputer to
