The Costs of High Performance Computing
The upfront and ongoing costs of purchasing a high performance computing system are often underestimated. As most companies HPC needs fluctuate, it's difficult to adequately size a system. Inevitably, this means
resources will be idle many hours and at other times will prove to be inadequate for a project's requirements. In addition, as the
servers age and more advanced hardware becomes available, companies may recognize a performance gap between themselves and competitors.
Beyond the price of the hardware itself, a large computer cluster demands specialized power resources, consumes vast amounts of electrical power, requires specialized cooling systems and requires valuable floor space. Generally, it will also require additional personnel to maintain, trouble-shoot, and provide end-user support. Linux cluster reseller's often include support as part of the sale of the hardware. But it is usually only for the hardware or limited to the software packages it was originally sold with. Any additional level of support is an additional cost. While at Sabalcore, technical support is included at no additional cost.

"We couldn't be happier with your service or your
cluster's speed. Thanks to [Sabalcore's Support]
getting our code running faster than expected, I am
now ahead of schedule." - Michael V. L3Com, June
