Overview:
The Konrad-Zuse-Zentrum, also known as the Zuse Institute Berlin (ZIB), has installed two innovative Nexus 5020 switches from Cisco on its high‑performance network. For the first time ever, the new components combine storage area network (SAN) and IP-based data traffic in the same unit. By using the Cisco® Nexus 5000, ZIB has very cost effectively increased the speed at which huge volumes of data are transported to and from its in-house supercomputer. This particularly benefits the many scientific institutions that use the supercomputer for tasks such as materials and climate research in cooperation with ZIB. This modernisation project, therefore, promises to improve the potential for innovation for the German research community as a whole.
