Eka in Top500

India appears in the Top 10 of the Top500 supercomputers list for the first time: http://top500.org/site/systems/2838

EKA, is a Linux cluster of Clovertown based Intel Xeon systems connected via Infiniband. Congratulations to Tata Sons and HP !

Quite shamefully, Solaris runs on only two of the Top500 supercomputers. Blame it on the pathetic HPC userspace and community when compared to Linux !
