Get more details on Windows HPC Server 2008, including a step-by-step guide on how to deploy a Windows HPC cluster.

Windows HPC Server 2008 brings the power, performance, and scale of high-performance computing (HPC) to mainstream computing. The centralized management and deployment interface in Windows HPC Server helps to simplify deployment for both large and small compute clusters, providing a simple and effective management experience to increase the productivity of cluster administrators, while offering seamless security, storage, and desktop access to cluster resources and management.

Windows HPC Server 2008 comprises Windows Server 2008 and Microsoft HPC Pack 2008. The Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 includes a highly scalable Job Scheduler that provides support for interactive service-oriented architecture (SOA) applications using HPC for Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) and for parallel jobs using Microsoft Message Passing Interface (MS-MPI). Administrators can set up essential applications from key independent software vendors (ISVs) on the cluster to help meet business needs in a timely, cost-effective, and highly productive manner; users can submit and monitor jobs from within familiar ISV applications without having to become familiar with new user interfaces.
