FlashLite: a high performance machine for data intensive science: The 21st century has been described as the century of data. Experts predict an exponential growth in the amount of data that will be captured, generated and archived. Australia has made significant progress towards addressing some of the opportunities and infrastructure challenges posed by such rapid increase in data volumes. However, these investments do not address the growing need to process data. Conventional supercomputers are unable to meet the challenges of the data explosion. The large gap in latency and bandwidth between the processor, memory and disk subsystems means that the processor is often idle waiting to fetch data. This project will build a platform focussed on data intensive science.

FlashLite：用于数据密集型科学的高性能机器：21世纪被描述为数据的世纪。专家预测，将被捕获、生成和存档的数据量将呈指数级增长。澳大利亚在应对数据量快速增长带来的一些机遇和基础设施挑战方面取得了重大进展。然而，这些投资并不能满足日益增长的数据处理需求。传统的超级计算机无法应对数据爆炸的挑战。处理器、内存和磁盘子系统之间的延迟和带宽差距很大，这意味着处理器经常处于空闲状态，等待获取数据。该项目将建立一个专注于数据密集型科学的平台。
