Fusion and Fission Energy and Science Directorate and Information Technology Services Directorate HPC Cluster Reduction, Consolidation, and Savings in Data Center Space, Power, and Cooling

This report evaluates the benefits of decommissioning six legacy FFESD purchased HPC clusters and consolidating services and workloads into a new HPC cluster named HELIOS. The findings demonstrate significant reductions in the data center power and cooling requirements, data center footprint, and operational overhead, while simultaneously increasing computational capacity.
