Cloud computing comes to NERSC

Staying Cool – By building the Magellan testbed at NERSC on IBM’s iDataPlex chassis, the facility can take advantage of the machine’s innovative half-depth design and liquid-cooled door, which reduces cooling costs by as much as half and floor space requirements by 30 percent.
