Tianhe supercomputer tops big data ranking again
TIANJIN — China's new generation Tianhe supercomputer has again won the top spot on the latest Big Data Green Graph 500 ranking, according to the National Supercomputer Center in Tianjin.
Launched in 2010, Graph 500 is the most authoritative international list for evaluating the performance of supercomputer graph computation.
It ranks the performance and energy efficiency of supercomputers worldwide for running large graphs using a performance metric called MTEPS/W, or million traversed edges per second per watt.
The new generation Tianhe supercomputer topped the big data category of the Green Graph 500 ranking with 6,320.24 MTEPS/W. The last time Tianhe topped the list was in July 2021.
The top ranking means that the Tianhe supercomputer has achieved international breakthroughs in handling complex data analysis, said Meng Xiangfei, chief scientist of the National Supercomputer Center in Tianjin.
With the growing demand for large-scale data analysis, graph computing is becoming an important pillar of big data and artificial intelligence.
