Succession

ARCHER 2 (Advanced Research Computing High End Resource 2) is the successor to ARCHER, a planned petascale x86 supercomputer intended to serve as the UK's primary academic research supercomputer. ARCHER 2 will begin operations on May 6 2020.

Overview[edit]

ARCHER 2 is the planned successor to ARCHER intended to deliver an average of 11x performance improvement over its predecessor. The system is based on Cray Shasta and will comprise 5,848 nodes across 23 Shasta liquid-cooled cabinets.
