Microsoft now has one of the world’s fastest supercomputers (and no, it doesn’t run on Windows) (Liam Tung, ZDNet)

A Microsoft Azure supercomputer dubbed ‘Voyager-EUS2’ has made it into the rankings of the world’s 10 fastest machines.

Microsoft’s supercomputer, with a benchmark speed of 30 Petaflops per second (Pflop/s) is still well behind China’s Tianhe-2A and the US Department of Energy’s IBM-based Summit supercomputer, but it’s the only major cloud provider with a supercomputer ranked in the top 10 in the high-performance computing (HPC) Top500 list.
