When performance matters
Cutting-edge solutions for HPC clusters, Cloud, Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence and Hyper-converged infrastructures, made for industry and academics alike
The solutions
E4 Computer Engineering designs and manufactures cutting-edge solutions for HPC clusters, the Cloud, Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence and Hyper-converged infrastructures, made for industry and academics alike.
Every E4 solution is UNIQUE, just like every one of our clients, rigorously TESTED, down to the last component, VALIDATED, to verify the effective performance of each system and SERVICED by technicians that support the most extensive and complex computing infrastructures in Italy and Europe.
HIGH PERFORMANCE
COMPUTING
MEDOOZA is E4’s solution for high performance computing (HPC), implemented and configured using a suite of appropriately harmonised hardware and software components. Medooza offers the easy-to-manage and intuitive approach to HPC clusters typical of traditional infrastructures, but with the flexibility and robustness of a modern, cutting-edge system.
INTERACTIVE
COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT
FOR HPC
ICE4HPC is an interface that enables notebook technology in the HPC environment, provides web access to computing resources for interactive use, and integrates seamlessly with Slurm to handle all requests efficiently.
Services are configured to optimize the user experience for both interactive and batch users.
CONTAINER PLATFORM
KAPTAIN is a “ready-to-use” Kubernetes cluster, designed to guarantee high performance and easy-of-use: in its standard configuration it integrates GPU and network RDMA support, block storage and object storage services for the persistence of container data, and a modern web interface to create, manage and monitor the various types of workload that a Kubernetes cluster can accommodate. Kaptain is the ideal infrastructure to use with the DevOps methodology.
GPU
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
APPLIANCE
GAIA is “ready-to-go” appliance that combines the powers of a multi-GPU server, a fully containerised stack software equipped with data management tools, interactive computing environments based on Notebook technology, services that display trained Data Models and tools that automate Data Science workflows.
GAIA consists of two main modules: the infrastructure (Kaptain single node) that provides high-performance container orchestration services, and the platform (E4AI-PLATFORM) that enables services and functionalities to maximize the productivity of data scientists
HIGH PERFORMANCE
CLOUD
FLUCTUS is E4’s CLOUD infrastructure, with powerful hardware and software components, an easy-to-manage and intuitive approach, and the flexibility of a modern, cutting-edge system. Fluctus was made using open source technologies which have been extensively validated by our research and development laboratories as well as by the many years of experience our clients have had of our solutions, both in the academic and industrial spheres. The design of FLUCTUS is based on building block hardware, configured and managed using internal tools developed in open source.
VIRTUALIZATION
STONES is a suite of E4 solutions for virtualization in the industry environment, consisting of: VSTONE (converged infrastructure); VSHUFFLE (hyperconverged infrastructure); TWINSTONE (replication, backup and DR infrastructure).
Our STONES solutions are completely integrated, preconfigured, tested and turnkey for the client. Based on the VMware vSphere ecosystem, our STONES solutions form the foundation from which one can develop a complete infrastructure that complies with the specific Software Defined Data Centre (SDDC). The architecture of STONES is fit to manage any workload, virtual desktop or business-critical application in a simple, yet exceptional, way.
