Massively Parallel Technologies, Inc., a provider of on-demand high-performance computing, announced doubling of the total number of servers in their BioTech Virtual Power Center (VPC). Users can immediately benefit from the increased processing power without the cost and complexity associated with owning and managing their own compute cluster. Combined with user-selectable processing speed, extensive standard biological databases and secure custom database upload, doubling the processing capacity is yet another example of Massively’s commitment to delivering exceptional customer value.

“Users from around the world are taking advantage of our BioTech VPC capabilities, currently offered for free, on a trial-basis,” stated Massively’s COO, Bernd Lutz. “Seamlessly doubling our compute capacity means we can continue to service our growing user base while preparing our infrastructure for expansion of on-demand supercomputing offerings.”

Massively’s BioTech VPC delivers the benefits of high-performance supercomputing without the costs and complexities associated with users owning and managing their own compute clusters. Currently, a high-performance version of NCBI-based BLAST is available. Using a standard web browser with Internet access, users can take advantage of Massively’s BioTech VPC without investing in any additional hardware or software.
