On December 13, it was announced that the company has been commissioned by The Leibniz Supercomputing Center (LRZ) of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities to build its next high-performance computer called “Blue Lion”. Scheduled to go live in early 2027 as part of Germany’s national high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure, the supercomputer will support cutting-edge research in Bavaria as well as outstanding national science projects.  The Blue Lion is based on next-generation HPE Cray technology, and works with next-generation NVIDIA accelerators and processors. It is going to be 30 times faster than its predecessor, SuperMUC-NG.

“Supercomputing plays a pivotal role for progress in science and society, as well as for national competitiveness. LRZ’s Blue Lion is another big step to reinforce Germany’s position as a leading region for supercomputing and AI innovation. Blue Lion will significantly advance LRZ’s computing capacity and also position them in a cutting-edge position with next-generation technologies that will set new standards for the future of supercomputing”.
