Leading-edge technology with flexibility of choice


IBM System Cluster 1350 integrated solutions are built on the highly innovative IBM System x® rack, BladeCenter® and iDataPlex™ servers. Whether you are building a small departmental cluster or a super computer, IBM's broad portfolio of server solutions can be optimised to meet client-specific requirements.
High Performance—paramount for high performance computing (HPC) clusters


HPC workloads will benefit by up to twice the performance. Our integrated cluster solutions offer significant price/performance advantages for many high-performance workloads by harnessing the advantages of our highly innovative servers. By design, a broad range of application environments will benefit, including applications optimised for industrial design and manufacturing, financial services, life sciences, government and education. It is also an excellent choice for applications that require horizontal scaling capabilities, such as Web serving and collaboration.


Energy and space efficient
Cluster 1350 solutions that integrate BladeCenter or iDataPlex servers can reduce power and cooling costs by up to 50%, while maximizing performance density, which is critical for HPC workloads.
Easily deployed, operated and maintained


The Cluster 1350 is your key to a fully integrated HPC solution. Our solutions include servers, storage and industry-leading OEM interconnects that are factory-integrated, fully tested and delivered to your door, ready to plug into your data centre, all with a single point of contact for support.
