National Center for High-performance Computing
Taiwan Computing Cloud
Driven by the National Science and Technology Council, the AI Cloud Platform - "Taiwan Computing Cloud (TWCC) ", was implemented by the NCHC together with a team of three domestic pointer companies, such as Taiwan Mobile, ASUS and Quanta Computer. TWCC runs on the strength of supercomputer "Taiwania 2 ", that uses 2,016 NVIDIA Tesla V100 32GB GPUs that deliver 9 PFLOPS of superior performance. Its GPU system is on par with those used on the fastest supercomputers around the world, offering optimal energy efficiency and providing the highest performance.
The latest container techniques help TWCC deliver its services. Through optimized AI software stacks, developers can quickly build their developmental environment at a 40% efficiency advantage over current methods. TWCC also supports large numbers of nodes affinity and GPUs, high-speed parallel computing across nodes affinity that provides 30% more service than the current cloud service. In addition to offering rapid computing capabilities, large storage spaces, and secured networks, the TWCC will also integrate AI programs, tools, and significant databases across the globe into the largest model store and data store in Taiwan to give users in industries, academia, and research more timely and more convenient computing services.
