Linux Networx spokesperson Brad Rutledge, who said Lightning should rank among the top 10 fastest supercomputers in the world, told TechNewsWorld that the deal is a validation of Linux clustering technology.

Los Alamos National Laboratory announced plans with system builder Linux Networx to build a Linux cluster supercomputer , using AMD Opteron processors, that will rank among the top 10 of the world's fastest computers and will facilitate nuclear weapons research.

Salt Lake City, Utah-based Linux Networx -- which also scored a second deal for a smaller, 256-node system that will be the largest InfiniBand cluster to date -- touted the rapid deployment of the system, dubbed "Lightning," that is scheduled for delivery in September.
