World's fastest supercomputer showcased at GITEX 2025

DUBAI: At GITEX 2025, one of the highlights Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is showcasing this year is the Cray supercomputing systems, featuring a 100% fanless direct liquid cooling architecture. This technology powers some of the world’s most powerful systems, including El Capitan.

This critical technology was also instrumental in enabling HPE to develop several of the top-performing supercomputers featured on the Green500 list, a prestigious ranking that identifies the world’s most energy-efficient supercomputing systems.

Next-generation accelerators have brought about efficiency improvements; however, the increasing adoption of AI is causing power consumption to escalate significantly.

This surge in power demand is surpassing the capabilities of conventional cooling methods, necessitating that organizations managing substantial AI workloads prioritize more efficient operational strategies.

HPE is at the forefront of the industry when it comes to direct liquid cooling, which stands out as the most effective and efficient method currently available for cooling advanced, next-generation AI systems.

The 100% fanless direct liquid cooling system architecture significantly improves the energy and cost efficiency of large-scale AI deployments.

This leads to substantial reductions in cooling power, utility costs, carbon emissions, and data center fan noise.

Additionally, systems utilizing this architecture can support higher server cabinet density, requiring only half the floor space.
