Talon, Sandia testbed cluster
Sandia computer scientist Ron Minnich is seen with a Sandia testbed cluster known as Talon, consisting of the same servers that comprise the 4,480-node Thunderbird cluster in Albuquerque. In running more than a million Linux kernels as virtual machines, Minnich and his colleagues ran one kernel in each of 250 virtual machines and coupled those with the 4,480 physical machines on Thunderbird.
