SGI announced the availability of NVIDIA Tesla K20 family of GPU accelerators and support for the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor in its entire server product line. The solutions include SGI Management Center software, and options like Performance Suite and SGI InfiniteStorage.

Based on the NVIDIA Kepler compute architecture, the Tesla K20 product family includes the Tesla K20X accelerator, the new flagship of NVIDIA's Tesla product line.

SGI's GPU accelerator solutions and Xeon Phi options are offered on the SGI UV 2000, SGI UV 20, SGI Rackable twin-socket Intel Xeon servers, and SGI ICE X blade server.

By combining the Intel Xeon Phi with SGI's server platforms, the company says that customers can take advantage of dramatic performance improvements for parallel workloads in an x86 programming model. SGI has been an Intel Xeon Phi Validation Partner, with early adoption of the Intel Xeon Phi coprocessor on SGI server platforms at NASA Ames, COSMOS Consortium2 and The Genome Analysis Centre (TGAC).
