HPC has new legs with Windows Server 2008
The next release of Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003, the HPC platform from Microsoft will be based on Windows Server 2008.
We relased today Windows Server 2008 RC0. The announcement is here: http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/features/2007/sep07/09-24windowserverrc0.mspx …and the Windows Server 2008 RC0 download is here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/audsel.mspx
This is a HUGE release as our ISVs will start testing their High Performance Computing solutions on this new platform, while our HPC dev teams are going full throttle at implementing additional value added features for the new High Performance Computing Platform. My last statement was meant to be vague for the moment.
Although I am dying to discuss all the cool stuff that we are doing in our next release of the HPC platform, i cannot at the moment. But, hang on tight and stay tuned, we are near. I am going to open the floodgates of information the earliest I can (w/o upsetting our marketing folks ;-)).
Till then go take Windows Server 2008 out for a spin.
