The Microway BioStack-LS is a modular, extensible cluster for life science researchers. It provides dense compute power that's easy to use. With over 49 TFLOPS of InfiniBand-connected computing power spread over 34,944 NVIDIA Tesla SMX GPU cores and 112 Intel Xeon CPU cores, the BioStack-LS provides performance vastly superior to traditional compute clusters. To suit life science customer needs, BioStack- LS is delivered fully tested, integrated, and ready to run NVIDIA's Bio WorkBench applications with the latest CUDA environment.

A core 9U configuration is available, yet BioStack also scales to multiple 42U cabinets for massive processing requirements.
