Brief History
NovaGlobal was formally established in 1996. Our first product, the AlphaSTORM line of high-performance workstation and server systems, are based on the 64-bit Alpha CPU architecture and had substantial success in both academic & research communities. Including important wins among local 3-D engineering (CAD) and multimedia rendering users. Our customised, embedded Alpha configurations also found their way to overseas research deployment.
NovaGlobal is one of the earliest companies to deploy a Beowulf cluster in Singapore way back in September 1997, with the Institute of Molecular & Cell Biology (IMCB) being its first customer. The HPC Cluster was for supporting the sequencing and annotating of the famed fugu fish genome. We had the honour of delivering and installing the first HPC Quadrics Interconnects for CNIC (Computer Network Information Center, Chinese Academy of Sciences) through Legend Computer of Beijing (aka Lenovo). It is the first system for the China National Grid Project, comprising of 256 node (1024 CPU) Itanium2-Quadrics-Linux (Intel IA64) cluster with a theoretical Linpak performance of 5TeraFlop (The Linpack efficiency topped 82% and the cluster listed at #12 on the 2003 Top 500 List).
Progressing into software businesses to include solutions designed around Open-Source software, services and technical support, we embraced cutting edge commercial software such as IBM GPFS, Accelrys suite, Pathscale and Intel Software. In continual with its pioneering spirit, Novaglobal is an early adopter of the recent fast emerging Cloud Native technology.
